摘要
The Raman spectrum of gallium oxide (beta-Ga2O3) nanowires with [001] growth direction is identical to that of the bulk Ga2O3 [Y. C. Choi Adv. Mater. 12, 746 (2000)] while that of beta-Ga2O3 nanowires with [40 (1) over bar] growth direction is redshifted by 4-23 cm(-1) [Y. H. Gao Appl. Phys. Lett. 81, 2267 (2002)]. Here we report the Raman and Fourier transform infrared spectra of beta-Ga2O3 nanowires with [110] growth direction which is blueshifted relative to the bulk spectra by similar to 10-40 cm(-1). Based on a first principles calculation of the strain dependence of Raman mode frequencies in bulk beta-Ga2O3, we correlate the observed frequency shifts to growth-direction-induced internal strains in the nanowires.
