Gold nanorods (NRs), pseudo-one-dimensional rod-shaped nanoparticles (NPs), have
become one of the burgeoning materials in the recent years due to their anisotropic shape …

The shape anisotropy of nanoparticle building blocks is of critical importance in determining
their packing symmetry and assembly directionality. While there has been extensive …

Early‐stage detection of diseases caused by pathogens is a prerequisite for expedient
patient care. Due to the limited signal‐to‐noise ratio, molecular diagnostics needs molecular …

Nanogaps as “hot spots” with highly localized surface plasmon can generate ultrastrong
electromagnetic fields. Superior to the exterior nanogaps obtained via aggregation and self …

Phthalate plasticizers (PAEs) are posing a serious threat to human health, so it is urgent to
develop effective and reliable ways to detect the food additives PAEs sensitively. In this …

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is considered to be a highly sensitive platform
for chemical and biological sensing. Recently, owing to their high porosity and large surface …

In this study, a highly sensitive and efficient surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS)
substrate was developed using Au dogbone nanorattles (Au-DBNRTs) deposited on a 3D …

In this study, a surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS) method has been
developed for the accurate detection and identification of carbapenem-resistant and …

A sometimes overlooked degree of freedom in the design of many spectroscopic (mainly
Raman) experiments involve the choice of experimental geometry and polarization …

Multiplexed quantification of low-abundance protein biomarkers in complex biofluids is
important for biomedical research and clinical diagnostics. However, in situ sampling without …
