摘要
We have investigated the structural, optical, and vibrational properties of strained heteroepitaxial ZnO layers by high resolution x-ray diffraction, reflectivity, and Raman measurements. The ZnO layers were grown by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy on sapphire substrates under varying growth conditions. A Poisson number of mu=0.303 and phonon deformation-potential parameters of a=-690 cm(-1), b=-940 cm(-1) for the high-energy E-2 optical phonon mode have been determined. The shift of the excitonic resonances due to the strain in the layers agrees well with the experimentally determined Poisson ratio using the deformation-potentials D-1-D-4 determined by Wrzesinski and Frohlich [Phys. Rev. B 56, 13087 (1997)]. (C) 2004 American Institute of Physics.
