Abstract

The phonon band structure and Raman response of diamond nanowires are calculated by means of the Born potential, including central and non-central interatomic forces, and a supercell model. The Raman scattering is studied by means of the local bond-polarization model based on the displacement- displacement Green's function within the linear response theory. Free standing, infinitely long and homogeneous quantum wires cross sections with the wire axis along the [001] direction are considered. The results show an important shift of the main Raman peak (highest optical mode) towards lower energies, in comparison with the bulk crystalline diamond case.
