GaAs1−yBiy Raman signatures: illuminating relationships between the electrical and optical properties of GaAs1−yBiy and Bi incorporation

We report the use of two Raman signatures, the Bi-induced longitudinal-optical-plasmon-coupled (LOPC) mode and the GaAs Fröhlich scattering intensity, present in nominally undoped (100) GaAs1−yBiy to predict the 300K photoluminescence intensity and Bi composition (y) in GaAs1−yBiy. The LOPC mode is...
