Although the method is used frequently, the underlying mechanism responsible\r\nfor the changes in the spectra is not fully understood. This inhibits deeper analysis of domain structures based\r\non this method. Two different models have been proposed. However, neither model completely explains all\r\nobservations. In this work, we have systematically investigated domain walls in different scattering geometries\r\nwith Raman spectroscopy in the common ferroelectric materials used in integrated optics, i.e., KTiOPO4,\r\nLiNbO3, and LiTaO3. Based on the two models, we can demonstrate that the observed contrast for domain\r\nwalls is in fact based on two different effects. We can identify on the one hand microscopic changes at the\r\ndomain wall, e.g., strain and electric fields, and on the other hand a macroscopic change of selection rules at the\r\ndomain wall. While the macroscopic relaxation of selection rules can be explained by the directional dispersion\r\nof the phonons in agreement with previous propositions, the microscopic changes can be explained qualitatively\r\nin terms of a simplified atomistic model.","lang":"eng"}]}
