Abstract
The electrophonon resonances (EPR) in cylindrical quantum wires are investigated in the presence of confined optical phonons. A comparison with the bulk phonons reveals a sharp difference between the selection rules that apply to the bulk and confined/interface phonons. This raises a possibility of detecting phonon confinement experimentally by utilizing EPR effects.
