Quasielastic light scattering in silicon
نویسندگان
چکیده
A dominant, broad central mode in the Brillouin spectrum of silicon was first reported by Sandercock in 1978. This feature was later ascribed to a two-phonon difference scattering process. However, the issue of quasielastic scattering in silicon has remained a major outstanding problem in Brillouin scattering, because similar central modes in other materials have commonly displayed two components. A second, broader quasielastic mode has been measured and is reported here.

Suppression of multiple scattering effects in quasielastic light scattering by homodyne cross-correlation techniques
By studying cross correlations in the intensity of light scattered by a fluid sample in different directions at different times, it is possible to measure the dynamic scattering function S(k,t) for the fluid. The multiple scattering contribution to the time-dependent cross correlations is very substantially less than the multiple scattering contribution to S(k,t) as obtained by a conventional s...

Reflection spectra of four porous silicon samples under etching times of 2, 6, 10, and 14 min with current density of 10 mA/cm2 were measured. Reflection spectra behaviors for all samples were the same, but their intensities were different and decreased by increasing the etching time. The similar behavior of reflection spectra could be attributed to the electrolyte solution concentration which ...

Monophase thorium–zirconium hydrides (ThZr2Hx) have been fabricated starting from a metallic alloy and the hydrogen stoichiometry determined by X-ray diffraction. Incoherent Quasielastic Neutron Scattering (IQNS) on the hydrides was conducted over the temperature range 650–750 K at the Backscattering Silicon Spectrometer (BASIS) at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at ORNL. The isotropic Chud...

Porous silicon (PS) layers come into existance as a result of electrochemical anodization on silicon. Although a great deal of research has been done on the formation and optical properties of this material, the exact mechanism involved is not well-understood yet. In this article, first, the optical properties of silicon and porous silicon are described. Then, previous research and the prop...

The deuteron sepctra from {n,d) reactions at 800 MeV near 0' are characterized by a high energy quasielastic scattering peak, and at lower momentum, a quasifree scattering peak. The ratio of the quasifree to quasielastic cross sections is approximately 10:1.Both cross sections exhibit an A '" mass dependence over the range of target nuclei studied. Comparisons are made with corresponding proton...
