The sizes of the ensembles of CdSe regular nanocrystals (RNCs), CdSe magic-sized nanocrystals (MSNCs), and CdS RNCs were investigated by Raman scattering. The nanocrystal ensembles were synthesized via wet-chemistry approaches. The size distribution increases from CdSe MSNCs (2.26 nm), to CdSe RNCs (3.52 nm), and to CdS RNCs (3-8 nm and 4-10 nm). The sizes derived from Raman spectra are compared with those from other characterization tools such as UV/vis spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The present study suggests that Raman scattering is an alternative and reliable technique for the determination of nanocrystal size and size distribution.
