Abstract
Resonant Raman spectra of nonpolar optical phonons in the layer compound InSe have been measured in the A-exciton region at 1.8 K and 77 K. Out-of-plane phonons exhibit their resonance dispersions typical of the one-exciton process. The in-plane phonon exhibits a dispersion which can be explained exclusively in terms of the two-exciton process where the A- and the C-exciton serve simultaneously as the resonance intermediate states. The results show that the out-of-plane phonons induce only intraband electronic scatterings, whereas in-plane ones do interband scatterings alone.
