In this tutorial seminar talk I will give an introduction into Raman scattering in solids in general, with a special focus on Raman scattering by crystal lattice vibrations in nanostructures. In the second part of the talk, the benefits of phonon Raman scattering and in particular of micro Raman spectroscopy will be discussed by various examples, including tetrapod nanocrystals [1] and carbon nanotubes [2].
