摘要
A theoretical analysis is performed of the effects of interfacial asymmetry in Si/Ge and GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs superlattices. It is assumed that the interfacial alloy density of both superlattices changes linearly. It is shown that the longitudinal acoustic (LA) phonon energies decrease (increase) if the interfaces resulting from the growth of Ge on Si or AlxGa1-xAs on GaAs are thicker (thinner) than the interfaces resulting from the growth of Si on Ge or GaAs on AlxGa1-xAs. These effects increase with the degree of interfacial asymmetry, and are stronger in Si/Ge than in GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs superlattices.
