Abstract

The red shift and asymmetric broadening of the LO phonon mode of ion-implanted GaAs are both described quantitatively by a spatial correlation model based on a damage-induced relaxation of the momentum selection rule previously used by Richter, Wang, and Ley to describe similar effects in microcrystalline Si. The success of the model for a qualitatively different disorder microstructure suggests it may be possible to evaluate average sizes of crystallographically perfect regions in semiconductors from the phonon lineshapes of their Raman spectra.
