V. Panella et al., BRILLOUIN-SCATTERING STUDY OF EPITAXIAL INSE FILMS GROWN ON THE SI(111)1X1-H SURFACE, Journal of physics. Condensed matter, 9(26), 1997, pp. 5575-5580
Brillouin light scattering has been used to study the elastic properti
es of an InSe film grown epitaxially on a hydrogen-terminated non-reco
nstructed Si(lll) surface. Both generalized Rayleigh-Sezawa and Love a
coustic modes have been revealed, and their velocity dispersions measu
red as functions of the ratio between the film thickness and the acous
tic wavelength. This enabled us to determine the complete set of InSe
film elastic constants through a non-linear best-fitting procedure.
