Abstract

We have measured the three independent components of the two-phonon Raman tensor of Si and GaP at room temperature. The component of Γ1 symmetry is the strongest, while the Γ12 component is practically negligible. The Γ1 components are due mainly to overtone bands; the Γ15 component observed in GaP seems due to combinations of the TO and LO branches: the Γ2 spectrum of Si is essentially a replica of the density of states of the transverse optical phonons. The results are compared with neutron scattering data.
