Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) combines molecular fingerprint specificity
with potential single-molecule sensitivity. Therefore, the SERS technique is an attractive tool …

We present a novel surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate based on
graphene oxide/silver nanoparticles/silicon pyramid arrays structure (GO/Ag/PSi). The SERS …

Low-cost, stabilized and ultrasensitive three-dimensional (3D) hierarchical surface-
enhanced Raman scattering substrates (“sunflower-like” nanoarrays decorated with Ag …

Gold-coated horizontally aligned carbon nanotube (Au-HA-CNT) substrates were fabricated
for surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). The Au-HA-CNT substrates, which are …

Gold nanostructured films of various thicknesses (15, 30, and 60 nm) are deposited over
regular arrays of polystyrene nanospheres in an attempt to evaluate their potential as SERS …

Supported lipid structures and human cells (human dermal derived keratinocyte, HaCaT)
were investigated using tip‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) to use the high spatial …

Silver nanocrystals with tetrahedral shapes and {111} faces have been synthesized by the
light-driven growth method in an aqueous solution. The nanocrystals of T d symmetry were …

We have demonstrated that by coating with a thin dielectric layer of tetrahedral amorphous
carbon (ta-C), a biocompatible and optical transparent material in the visible range, the Ag …

Food analysis has been gaining interest throughout recent decades for different reasons: the
detection of hazardous substances in food and routine investigations of food composition …

Over the last several years it has become apparent to most researchers that interdisciplinary
research is the key to success in the sciences' future. The present book exemplifies such …
