The double-resonant 2D-mode Raman process in bilayer graphene has been discussed controversially in recent years. In this context, different models were proposed to explain the complex lineshape observed in experiments.
Using a two-dimensional first-principles calculation, we investigate the dominant contributions to the double-resonant Raman scattering cross-section of the 2D mode in bilayer graphene [1]. In contrast to previous works, we demonstrate that so-called ’inner’ processes are, by far, the most dominant processes, as in single-layer graphene. Moreover, we show that the splitting between the two TO-derived phonon branches in bilayer graphene cannot be neglected for a consistent understanding of the 2D-mode lineshape. Additionally, we investigate the contributions from both TO branches to the symmetric and anti-symmetric scattering processes. Our results answer the long-standing question regarding the different contributions to the 2D-mode lineshape in bilayer graphene.
