Abstract

The dispersion relation for optical phonons in Si/3C-SiC heterostructures is calculated taking into account the existence of interfacial transition regions with thickness similar to 1 nm. A macroscopic theory based on the dielectric continuum model is used, which fulfills electrostatic boundary conditions. It is shown that interface effects can strongly decrease (up to 100 cm(-1)) the frequency splitting of both the interface and confined modes in the low wave vector limit.
