In Raman spectroscopy of graphite and graphene, the $D$ band at $sim 1355$cm$^{-1}$ is used as the indication of the dirtiness of a sample. However, our analysis suggests that the physics behind the $D$ band is closely related to a very clear idea for describing a molecule, namely bonding and antibonding orbitals in graphene. In this paper, we review our recent work on the mechanism for activating the $D$ band at a graphene edge.

By analytically constructing the matrix elements of an electron-phonon interaction for the $D$ band in the Raman spectra of armchair graphene nanoribbons, we show that pseudospin and momentum conservation result in (i) a $D$ band consisting of two co
mponents, (ii) a $D$ band Raman intensity that is enhanced only when the polarizations of the incident and scattered light are parallel to the armchair edge, and (iii) the $D$ band softening/hardening behavior caused by the Kohn anomaly effect is correlated with that of the $G$ band. Several experiments are mentioned that are relevant to these results. It is also suggested that pseudospin is independent of the boundary condition for the phonon mode, while momentum conservation depends on it.
We report the observation of an intense anomalous peak at 1608 cm$^{-1}$ in the Raman spectrum of graphene associated to the presence of chromium nanoparticles in contact with graphene. Bombardment with an electron beam demonstrates that this peak is
distinct from the well studied D$$ peak appearing as defects are created in graphene; the new peak is found non dispersive. We argue that the bonding of chromium atoms with carbon atoms softens the out-of-plane optical (ZO) phonon mode, in such a way that the frequency of its overtone decreases to $2omega_{rm ZO}simomega_{rm G}$, where $omega_{rm G}$=1585~cm$^{-1}$ is the frequency of the Raman-active E$_{rm 2g}$ mode. Thus, the observed new peak is attributed to the 2ZO mode which becomes Raman-active following a mechanism known as Fermi resonance. First-principles calculations on vibrational and anharmonic properties of the graphene/Cr interface support this scenario.
Si-SiO2 multilayer nanocomposite (NCp) films, grown using pulsed laser deposition with varying Si deposition time are investigated using Raman spectroscopy/mapping for studying the variation of Si phonon frequency observed in these NCps. The lower fr
equency (LF) phonons (~ 495 - 510 cm-1) and higher frequency (HF) phonons (~ 515 - 519 cm-1) observed in Raman mapping data (Fig. 1A) in all samples studied are attributed to have originated from surface (Si-SiO2 interface) and core of Si nanocrystals, respectively. The consistent picture of this understanding is developed using Raman spectroscopy monitored laser heating/annealing and cooling (LHC) experiment at the site of a desired frequency chosen with the help of Raman mapping, which brings out clear difference between core and surface (interface) phonons of Si nanocrystals. In order to further support our attribution of LF being surface (interface) phonons, Raman spectra calculations for Si41 cluster with oxygen termination are performed which shows strong Si phonon frequency at 512 cm-1 corresponding to the surface Si atoms. This can be considered analogous to the observed phonon frequencies in the range 495 - 510 cm-1 originating at the Si-SiO2 interface (extended). These results along with XPS data show that nature of interface (oxygen bonding) in turn depends on the size of nanocrystals and thus LF phonons originate at the surface of smaller Si nanocrystals. The understanding developed can be extended to explain large variation observed in Si phonon frequencies of Si-SiO2 nanocomposites reported in the literature, especially lower frequencies.
Massless Dirac fermions in graphene can acquire a mass through different kinds of sublattice-symmetry-breaking perturbations, and there is a growing need to determine this mass using a conventional method. We describe how the mass caused by a stagger
ed sublattice potential is determined using Raman spectroscopy and explain the mechanism in terms of the pseudospin polarization of massive Dirac fermions.
Model description of patterns of atomic displacements in twisted bilayer systems has been proposed. The model is based on the consideration of several dislocation ensembles, employing a language that is widely used for grain boundaries and film/subst
rate systems. We show that three ensembles of parallel screw dislocations are sufficient both to describe the rotation of the layers as a whole, and for the vortex-like displacements resulting from elastic relaxation. The results give a clear explanation of the observed features of the structural state such as vortices, accompanied by alternating stacking.
