Abstract  Far-infrared reflection and Raman scattering measurements have been carried out on reactive ion, etched p-ZnTe samples. The averaged thickness of the surface damaged layer is found to be in the range of 1.0-1.5μm, and the, etch-induced defect density is in the order of $10^{18}$cm$^{-3}$. The Raman intensity ratio between the second-order Raman peaks and the first-order longitudinal optical phonons reveals an increase trend with the radio frequency (rf) power. With the aid of related theories, we discuss the effects of the rf plasma power and the concentration of CH$_4$/H$_2$ on the damage, disorder, and the second-order Raman structures in p-ZnTe samples.
