Nanosized BaTiO3 coated with dodecybensulphonic acid (DBS) and stearic acid (St) was prepared using the hydrothermal procedure. The average size of DBS/BaTiO3 and St/BaTiO3 is about 60nm, much smaller than the that of 100nm of the uncoated particles prepared under similar conditions. Raman spectra from the coated particles were measured, and scattering signals from both BaTiO3 and the coatings were observed. It was found that the Raman peaks of BaTiO3 shift toward higher frequency(blue shift), instead of the red shift generally observed when the particle size is reduced, and the linewidth increases when the grain is coated. Meanwhile, we found that different coating show different amount of Raman shifts. We discussed the possible origin of the blue shift.
