▎ 摘  要

Phonon self-energy corrections have mostly been studied theoretically and experimentally for phonon modes with zone-center (q = 0) wave vectors. Here, gate-modulated Raman scattering is used to study phonons of a single layer of graphene originating from a double-resonant Raman process with q not equal 0. The observed phonon renormalization effects are different from what is observed for the zone-center q = 0 case. To explain our experimental findings, we explored the phonon self-energy for the phonons with nonzero wave vectors (q not equal 0) in single-layer graphene in which the frequencies and decay widths are expected to behave oppositely to the behavior observed in the corresponding zone-center q = 0 processes. Within this framework, we resolve the identification of the phonon modes contributing to the G(star) Raman feature at 2450 cm(-1) to include the iTO + LA combination modes with q not equal 0 and also the 2iTO overtone modes with q = 0, showing both to be associated with wave vectors near the high symmetry point K in the Brillouin zone.
