▎ 摘 要
We investigate the stacking-order dependence of the double-resonant LO-ZO Raman combination mode, also called N mode, in ABA- and ABC-stacked trilayer graphene. By tuning the laser energy, we observe different N mode dispersions for both stackings and show that these shifts are indicative for the stacking type. We explain the different shifts with stacking-related changes in the electronic bands and the phonon dispersion. Additionally, we performed simulations of the double-resonant Raman spectra of the N mode in bilayer graphene. Our calculations predict a splitting of the N mode for laser excitation energies above 2.6eV due to different contributions from both bands. We also analyzed the subpeaks of the N mode in few-layer graphene and explain their appearance only at even numbers of graphene layers.

The dashed vertical lines denote the unit cell atoms that are directly above each other. (C) 2013 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim
