Polarized Raman spectra of β-FeSi2 epitaxial film grown by molecular beam epitaxy

Polarized Raman spectra of a β-FeSi2(100)//Si(001) epitaxial film grown by molecular beam epitaxy were measured to identify the Raman mode of the observed Raman active lines. Twelve of the observed 18 Raman lines showed a clear dependence of the Raman intensity on the crystal rotation angle. By fact...
