Abstract

The resonance Raman scattering observed in the exciton region of indirect AgBr nanocrystals with mean particle radius 〈 R〉 ≈ 5 nm is analyzed. Considering the processes as absorption followed by emission and calculating the size dependent exciton energies by the donor-like exciton model of Ekimov et al. [1], the 1TO(L) and 2TO(L)&LO(Γ) resonance behavior can be well-reproduced. The analysis of the Raman spectral lineshape based on linear exciton-phonon coupling shows a substantial increase of coupling strength with excitation photon energy. It is attributed to enhanced acoustic and surface phonon interaction of higher exciton states.
