    Raman amplification for trapped radiation in crystalline single Si nanoparticle

    In a single crystalline Si particle, we observed a huge amplification of the Raman peak at 521 cm−1. With an AFM microscope, coupled with a Micro-Raman spectrometer, we investigate a single Si particle at wavelen...
