Room temperature Raman study of the crystalline and amorphous CaGa2S4 was done. Stokes and Anti-Stokes spectra were obtained in back-scattering geometry using a high rejection double monochromator and the 5 14.5nm line of an argon ion laser. Except for polarization characteristics, the Raman spectra of the polycrystalline CaGa2S4 represent one-phonon spectra at the center of the Brillouin zone. The spectra consist of 18 lines rather than 84 Raman-active lines given by the factor-group analysis. The distribution of the one-phonon density-of-states from ωmin=74.7cm-1 to ωmax=4 12.7cm-1 exhibits a frequency gap between 199.8 cm-1 and 284.7cm-1. The effective phonon density-of-states across the Brillouin zone, which was derived from the Raman spectrum of the amorphous CaGa2S4, exhibits somewhat different distribution of the peak densities compared to one-phonon spectra. The upper limit for Debye approximation in CaGa2S4 is found at 21.7 cm-1. The applicability of the molecular approach to the Raman spectra of CaGa2S4 is discussed. It is proposed that two different structural units generate the most intense 284.7cm-1- and 360.7cm-1 -vibrations above the frequency gap.
