Abstract
The major mechanisms of Raman broadening of phonon modes are discussed based on the phonon relaxation at the boundary of nanocrystals. The negative phonon dispersion is compensated by the lattice contraction for the longitudinal phonons which results in an almost constant Raman shift. However, the surface phonon frequency is rapidly increased with decreasing quantum dot size which originates from the constructive coupling of positive phonon dispersion and lattice contraction.
