ABSTRACT
Temperature evolution of the high-resolution far-infrared transmission spectra of 6H-SiC single crystal slab is experimentally examined in a temperature range of 5-320 K. Temperature dependences of the phonon lifetimes for long-lived phonons, namely the IR active folded transverse acoustic (FTA) phonon doublet, are determined. These dependences are interpreted in the framework of a theoretical model developed using first principle anharmonic lattice dynamics. It is shown that three-phonon anharmonic processes dominate in the FTA phonon decay at temperatures above 160 K resulting in a rapid decrease of the phonon lifetimes with increasing temperature. Contribution of four-phonon anharmonic processes is negligibly small at temperatures below 320 K.
