摘要
We present a Raman spectroscopy study of the vibration modes of CdSe quantum dots, embedded either in BeTe or ZnSe. The spectra reflect different degrees of interface abruptness. Atomically sharp interfaces are obtained in the case of the BeTe matrix, especially when the interface bonds are chosen to be Cd-Te type. In contrast, noticeable intermixing occurs for the ZnSe matrix. The CdSe-BeTe vibration modes are described by ab initio calculations. The vibrations of CdSe-ZnSe are explained in terms of ternary (Cd,Zn)Se modes with increasing Cd content for increasing nominal CdSe coverage.
