“…We can exploit this expression derived for a single nanocrystal to determine the size distribution parameters (mean size and skewness) by projecting the PCM onto a size distribution function. 17,22 In this work, on the basis of the PCM, we will develop an analytical approach that is expressed in terms of nanocrystal size only, which will be used as a fitting function to directly determine the silicon nanocrystal size distribution. By using the analytical PCM model developed, we will show that volume fraction of nanocrystals with different sizes could be determined if a mixture of different size distributions are involved.…”

“…Peaks are shifted from the well-known line of 519 cm -1 for monocrystalline silicon, which may indicate a violation of the periodicity of the lattice due to embedding of aluminium atoms [8]. As shown in [9], the shift of the peak of monocrystalline silicon on such a value may be caused by the crystallization of Si in the form of grains with a size of 2-3 nm that for a sample 5 will be consistent with the results of x-ray diffractometry.…”

“…Пики смещены от известной линии 519 см -1 для моно-кристаллического кремния, что может указы-вать на нарушение периодичности решетк и вследствие внедрения атомов алюминия [8]. Как показано в [9], смещение пика монокристалли-ческого кремния на такую величину может быть обусловлено кристаллизацией Si в виде зерен величиной 2-3 нм, что для образца 5 согласуется с результатами рентгеновской дифрактометрии.…”

“…We note that the peak around 520cm -1 is asymmetrically broadened to the lower frequency side, which is likely explained by the presence of small Si-nanocrystals with a distribution of sizes, which should give rise to a further spread in the number of optically allowed modes away from the BZ centre, due to a superposition of confined optical phonon modes. The PCM has been applied generally to describe similar observations of peak shifts and asymmetric broadening in Raman spectra for a range of nanocrystalline and polymorphous materials [14][15][16] . The peak shift of our measured Raman spectra is qualitatively in agreement with the predictions of the PCM in that the peak position is red-shifted as the nanocrystal mean diameter, determined from the TEM images is reduced.…”
