## Abstract

Interface phonon (IF) modes of c-plane oriented [AlN/GaN]20 and Al0.35Ga0.65N/Al0.55Ga0.45N]20 multi quantum well (MQW) structures grown via plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy are reported. The effect of variation in dielectric constant of barrier layers to the IF optical phonon modes of well layers periodically arranged in the MQWs investigated.
