Xerogel and aerogel TiO2 were prepared by natural dry and supercritical dry respectively.Conventional Raman Spectra show that the width of peaks of TiO2 was almost broaden linearly with its particle size decreased down to several nm and a few new peaks were observed. The phenomena can be explained as the effect of particle size and occurrence of new surface structure. It can be used as a method of determination of small particle size. Low-frequency Raman scattering shows that from the intensity of spectra, the fractal dimension of nanocrystal xerogels and aerogels can be obtained by comparing with the base intensity.
