摘要
Polarized Raman scattering spectra of spontaneously ordered Ga0.47In0.53As alloys, combined with low-temperature photoluminescence and transmission electron microscopy, are used to find a unique phonon signature of CuPtB-type ordering. In the Raman spectra of ordered alloys, a new phonon peak that is absent in the spectrum of the random alloy appears at 181 cm(-1). The intensity of this peak correlates with the degree of ordering inferred from electron diffraction measurements. We propose that Raman scattering measurements can be used as a nondestructive probe to detect spontaneous ordering in this alloy. (C) 1998 American Institute of Physics. [S0003-6951(98)02244-X]
