A systematic investigation on nanocrystalline LiCoO₂ has been carried out using Raman spectroscopy. We synthesized nanocrystalline LiCoO ₂ (ca. 20-50nm) through a combination of rapid thermal annealing at various annealing temperatures and a sol-gel method assisted with a triblock copolymer surfactant. Powder X-ray diffraction measurements revealed the formation of LiCoO₂. The crystallite size of LiCoO₂ from the Scherrer equation strongly depended on the annealing temperature. The crystallite size was confirmed by SEM and TEM measurements. Raman shifts of the A_1g and E_g modes for nanocrystalline LiCoO₂ exhibited a broadening and a frequency shift according to the crystallite size. While the frequency shift could be ascribed to a structural strain at the surface, the broadening was due to the phonon confinement effect produced by narrow crystal boundaries.
