摘要
We present results of Raman study on epitaxial Fe3O4 films grown in three different orientations (100, 110 and 111) on MgO (100), MgO (110) and c-axis Al2O3 substrates respectively. X-ray diffraction and in-plane (phi scan) measurements indicate that films are epitaxial and single phase in nature on all the three substrates. Using Allen's formula, the strength of the electron-phonon coupling (lambda) is estimated with the help of frequency and line width of different Raman modes. The observed variation in lambda value in epitaxially grown film in different orientation indicates the anisotropic behavior of electron-phonon coupling constant.
