[14p-A405-4] Phonon Dispersion Study in Si1-xGex Thin Films by Inelastic X-ray Scattering
Keywords:Phonon Dispersion, Inelastic X-ray Scattering, Thermal conduction
We report the results of phonon dispersion evaluation of single-crystal Si1-xGex (X = 0.1, 0.2) thin films using Inelastic X-ray Scattering (IXS). The dispersions of acoustic phonons along Γ-Χ point were evaluated, and the phonon line width expansion near Χ point and the dispersionless phonon mode around 15 meV over the entire measurement region were observed (which were not observed in pure Si). We will discuss those observed results in our presentation.
