Strong Polarization Dependence of Double-Resonant Raman Intensities in Graphene

초록

Spatially resolved and polarized micro-Raman spectroscopy on microcrystalline graphene shows strong polarization dependences of double-resonance Raman intensities. The Raman intensity of the double-resonant 2D band is maximum when the excitation and detection polarizations are parallel and minimum when they are orthogonal, whereas that of the G band is isotropic. A calculation shows that this strong polarization dependence is a direct consequence of inhomogeneous optical absorption and emission mediated by electron-phonon interactions involved in the second-order Stokes-Stokes Raman scattering process.
