Abstract
GaAs epitaxially grown on porous Si (PS) showed the presence of wires with typical diameters of 60 nm, and lengths in the range 6-10 mu m. T he Raman spectra of these samples were studied, and we focused attenti on on two additional modes appearing as 'shoulders' to the LO and TO G aAs lines. The former could be assigned to a surface phonon, and the l atter to the presence of As clusters.
