Oxygen vibrational modes in ZnS1−xOx alloys

Abstract: ZnS1−xOx alloy films were studied via resonant Raman spectroscopy. Films with a low oxygen content exhibit ZnS longitudinal optical modes and additional modes attributed to O local vibrational modes (LVMs). The frequencies of these modes are explained by a simple mass-defect model. As the O content increases, pairs and larger clusters form, causing the O mode to transition from an LVM to a delocalized phonon. The composition dependence of the modes shows agreement with the modified random element isodisplaceme… Show more

“…That is, the behavior of the LVM is nearly unencumbered by modifications due to next‐nearest neighbor O atoms. However, with increasing O content the ZnS 1−x O x alloy system is predicted by the modified random element isodisplacement model to exhibit “two mode” behavior, in agreement with experiment . That is, the peak position of the LVM will shift to higher energies with increasing O content, similar to findings in other alloy systems .…”
