  • Abstract
    We report the first observation of single particle excitation (SPE) in electronic Raman spectroscopy as well as the plasmon related Raman peak located at 352 cm-1 in the ordered Ga0.52 In0.48P:Se with a carrier concentration of >1017 cm-3. These observations indicate that high density thermally excited carriers exist in the ordered Ga0.52 In0.48P:Se. However, the disordered Ga0.52In 0.48P:Se with almost same amount of carrier concentration does not show either SPE or plasmon related peaks. This implies that the ordering might cause a carrier confinement effect to increase the density of carriers. This confinement effect could be possible if the ordered region with a lower bandgap energy is surrounded by the disordered matrix with a higher bandgap energy in the ordered Ga0.52In0.48P
