This paper gives an overview of theoretical and experimental results on Raman‐active
optical phonon modes confined in nearly spherical nanocrystals (NCs) of polar …

Electronic and photonic materials discussed in this handbook are the key elements of
continued scientific and technological advances in the 21st century. The electronic and …

This book provides a detailed description of the quantum confinement of electrons and
phonons in semiconductor wells, superlattices and quantum wires, and shows how this …

Phonon polaritons localized in polar nanoresonators and superlattices are being actively
investigated as promising platforms for midinfrared nanophotonics. Here we show that the …

Phonon polaritons, hybrid light-matter quasiparticles resulting from strong coupling of the
electromagnetic field with the lattice vibrations of polar crystals are a promising platform for …

The dispersion of polar optical phonons in wurtzite AlN/GaN heterostructures grown along
the [0001] direction, with particular emphasis on AlN/GaN superlattices, has been calculated …

Raman intensities of Si quantum dots (QD's) with up to 11489 atoms (about 7.6 nm in
diameter) for different scattering configurations are calculated. First, phonon modes in these …

The interest in micro and tip‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy in analyzing nanosized and
nanostructured materials, chiefly semiconductors, oxides and pristine or functionalized …

We obtain the self-energy of the electronic propagator due to the presence of Holstein
polarons within the first Born approximation. This leads to a renormalization of the Fermi …

We show that the long-range dipolar interactions in a crystalline cubic polar semiconducting
nanowire give rise to an important splitting of the Raman-active transverse optic (TO) and …
