Abstract

New possibilities for modifying the phonon spectra of III-V compounds are evidenced by micro-Raman analysis of porous layers prepared by electrochemical anodization of (111 )Aoriented n-GaP substrates. In particular, a surface-related vibrational mode along with a porosity-induced decoupling between the longitudinal optical (LO) phonon and plasmon are observed. We prove that filling in the pores with other materials (aniline as a first approach) is a promising tool for controlling the surface phonon frequency.
