Abstract

We have observed two local vibrational modes related to H bonded to N acceptors in ZnSe samples grown by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy. The modes have been seen in both infrared and Raman spectroscopy. The new mode seen at 3194 cm-1 is assigned to an N-H stretching vibrational mode and the mode found at 783 cm-1 is tentatively assigned to an N-H wagging vibrational mode. Polarized Raman spectroscopy was used to determine that the symmetry of the defect complex is C3v, which implies that the H atom is in either a bonding or anti-bonding position.
