TL;DR: The shell-isolated nanostructure-enhanced fluorescence, an innovative new mode for plasmon-enhancing surface analysis, is included, based on the coupling of the fluorophores in their excited states with localized surface plasmons in nanoparticles, where local field enhancement leads to improved brightness of molecular emission and higher detection sensitivity.

TL;DR: The quantitative analysis of target molecules over a large concentration range has been demonstrated with a linear response of the relative SERS intensity versus the surface coverage, which has not been achieved by conventional SERS methods.

TL;DR: To elucidate the structures of electric double layers at electrochemical interfaces, in situ Raman spectroscopy and ab initio molecular dynamics are combined and two structural transitions of interfacial water at electrified Au single-crystal electrode surfaces are identified.

TL;DR: A facile chemical method to prepare shell-isolated Ag nanoparticle/tip is reported, which features an alternative plasmon-mediated photocatalysis pathway by smartly blocking "hot" electrons and offers a unique way for the promotion of ultrahigh sensitivity and reliability in plAsmon-enhanced spectroscopies.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate a simple and innovative design that can simultaneously improve the output performance and transmittance of the transparent triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG), which gives a maximum output up to 200 V and 7 μA at a current density of ∼ 0.78 μA cm−2.
