Abstract

We have applied to semiconductors the thory of Brillouin scattering from corrugated surfaces developed previously. We have fitted the available spectra measured with 5145 A light in order to evaluate the elastooptic constants of the medium. For GaAs we found k_11=42.5 k_12=51, k_44=25.5. This is the first determination of these constants in GaAs at this wavelenght where other techniques are not applicable. For silicon we found k_11=53 k_12=25, k_44=23. It is also shown that in opaque semiconductors the elastooptic coupling depends strongly on the surface orentation.
