Raman scattering spectra of columnar nanostructures of porous GaAs and InP were investigated at room temperature and at 77 K using different laser excitation wavelengths in the visible and in the near infrared region. The samples have two layers with different porosity structures which were well characterized by scanning electron microscope. In the case of porous GaAs the cylinders have radii in the range of 50-100 nm and about 10000 nm long. The radii of the InP cylinders are in the range of 25-50 nm. The distribution of the charge carriers in individual cylinders as well as in groups of well-oriented parallel cylinders was studied using micro-Raman scattering. The bands observed are compared with calculations predicting coupled LO-phonon-plasmon and coupled Fröhlich-plasmon modes using a dielectric function derived on the basis of an appropriate two-dimensional effective-medium theory.
