Characteristics of Raman scattering spectroscopy for $ZnS_{1-x}Te_x$ alloy semi- conductor  

Abstract
We have studied the characteristics of Raman scattering spectroscopy from $_ZnS{1-x}Te_x$ alloys in the whole range of Te composition x. The Raman spectra showed two-mode behaviors for those alloys. The Raman line shape showed the changes of an asymmetry and broadening of that with Te composition x. The asymmetric broadening of the line shape could be explained with a spatial correlation model.
