摘要: Nanocrystalline Ga0.62In0.38Sb embedded in SiO2 matrix has been fabricated by radio frequency magnetron co-sputtering. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy strongly supports the existence of nanocrystalline matrix. The room-temperature Raman spectrum shows that peaks Ga0.62In0.38Sb-SiO2 composite film have a larger red shift about 95.3 cm-1 (longitudinal-optic) and 120.1 (transverse-optic) than those bulk GaSb. This can be explained phonon confinement tensile stress effects. optical transmission spectra show absorption edge exhibits large blue 2.43 eV compared with semiconductor, suggesting quantum size
