Abstract
Raman spectroscopy is used to measure the frequency shift, symmetry, a nd activity of long-wavelength optical phonons in several GaAs straine d epilayers. The results are compared with theoretical evaluations usi ng the elastic compliances, phonon deformation potentials, and Raman t ensors. The effect of growth direction ([001], [111], and [112]) and t he substrate nature (Si or CaF2) is analyzed. The importance of nonsta ndard growth directions, [111] or [112], on residual stress and piezoe lectric effect is discussed.
