Abstract
Vibrational spectra of ultrafine (∼1.8 nm) CdS x Se1−x colloidal nanoparticles (NPs) are studied by resonant Raman scattering (RRS). The detected difference of the shape and spectral position of the longitudinal optical vibration band in comparison with the spectrum of slightly larger NPs (≥ 2 nm) is explained by the dominance of surface atoms as their fraction increases above 50%. The correlation of experimental results with ab initio calculated vibrational spectra and with vibration anharmonicity enhancement as the NP size decreases is discussed.
