Journal ArticleDOI
Enhancement of Molecular Fluorescence near the Surface of Colloidal Metal Films
TL;DR: The results demonstrate the requirement for adsorbate location within the region between Ag particles for maximal enhancement, and the procedure for forming a rigid, uniform silica layer around the Ag particles on the CMF provides the requisite stability for bioanalytical applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laser Ablation of Metals: A New Method for Preparing SERS Active Colloids
TL;DR: Laser ablation of metals is a new and very powerful method for preparation of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) active colloids as mentioned in this paper, which is characterized by its simplicity and versatility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Colloidal metal films as a substrate for surface-enhanced spectroscopy
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of the dielectric constant of solvents on the optical frequencies, as well as the specific interaction of the solvent molecules with the metal on the plasmon resonances, was examined in detail.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reduction of Cytochrome c by Halide-Modified, Laser-Ablated Silver Colloids
TL;DR: In this paper, surface modification on the Ag plasmon resonance was studied in both colloidal suspensions and colloidal metal films and the conclusion was made that adsorption of I- and Br- ions results in charging of the Ag particle as a whole and a shift of its potential to more negative values.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy to biological systems
TL;DR: A review of the literature relating to the application of surfaceenhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and surface-enhanced resonance (SERRS) techniques to the study of biological molecules is presented in this paper.
