Analogous to the observation on rough surfaces, the excitation of SPs on gratings can be
observed by the emitted light. In the experimental arrangement, see Fig. 6, 1, the rough …

Surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) imparts Raman spectroscopy with the
capability of detecting analytes at the single‐molecule level, but the costs are also manifold …

On the basis of different types of experiments, the authors develop implicitly the model of
surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) of adsorbates on metal surfaces. The long …

A theory for surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is developed. Effects due to
realistic surface geometry and dielectric properties are included. Three sources of enhanced …

We briefly review the contents of this as well as previous volumes of the series Light
Scattering in Solids, and present a chronological account of the International Conference on …

After over 30 years of development, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is now
facing a very important stage in its history. The explosive development of nanoscience and …

Theoretical calculations are presented which show that the enhancement predicted by the
particle plasmon model of surface-enhanced Raman scattering is limited by radiation …

Second-harmonic generation at a silver-air interface was enhanced by a factor of 10 4 by
surface roughness. The local-field enhancement is believed to be responsible for the effect …

Several models have been proposed to explain the observations of surface enhanced
Raman scattering. 1, 2 One of the most successful theories has been an electromagnetic …
