TLDR
In this article, the authors describe the theory, design, and performance of a surfaceplasmon-polariton (SPP) assisted Raman scattering instrument that exploits the Kretschmann geometry and allows the entire SPP emission cone to be collected, thus optimizing the detected Raman intensity.Abstract:
We describe the theory, design, and performance of a new surface‐plasmon‐polariton‐(SPP) assisted Raman scattering instrument that exploits the Kretschmann geometry. In contrast to previous methods, our device allows the entire SPP emission cone to be collected, thus optimizing the detected Raman intensity. This advantage makes surface Raman scattering from adsorbates on relatively smooth or single‐crystal silver films possible with routine optics and electronics in the rest of the system. We demonstrate the concept with data acquired from a monolayer of paranitrosodimethylanaline (pNDMA) on nearly smooth polycrystalline Ag and single‐crystal Ag(111) with air or liquid as the ambient medium.read more

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) model of adsorbates on metal surfaces, where the long-range enhancement by resonances of the macroscopic laser and Stokes field is separated quantitatively from the metal electron-mediated resonance Raman effect.

In situ kinetics of self-assembly by surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy
TL;DR: Using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy in the Kretschmann configuration, this paper followed the self-assembly of organic ultrathin films which resulted from exposure of gold surfaces to solutions of CH3(CH2)n-1SH (n = 8, 12, 16, and 18) in ethanol and heptane.

Surface plasmon resonance of au colloid-modified au films : particle size dependence
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of colloid diameter on the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) response of a colloidal Au modified Au film was described, and it was shown that 30−59 nm diameter colloid Au can significantly increase the SPR response.

Combining Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) Spectroscopy with Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS)
TL;DR: The simultaneous measurement of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) on flat metallic surfaces is demonstrated on a relatively simple experimental setup based on the Kretschmann configuration, emphasized in terms of the asymmetry between excitation and collection requirements.

TL;DR: A discussion of the major methods used to measure vibrational spectra of surface species can be found in this article, where the emphasis is on basic concepts and experimental methods rather than a current survey of the extensive literature in this field.

Energy transfer from an excited dye molecule to the surface plasmons of an adjacent metal.
Willes H. Weber,C F Eagen +1 more
TL;DR: The probability for direct energy transfer from a dye molecule to the surface plasmons (SP) on a nearby metal is calculated using the classical Sommerfeld model and the coupling is demonstrated in experiments with an Ag film between a rhodamine–methanol solution and a high-index prism.

Surface-Electromagnetic-Wave-Enhanced Raman Scattering by Overlayers on Metals
TL;DR: Using a general formulation, this paper showed that using surface electromagnetic waves in an attenuated-total-reflection prism configuration should enhance the intensity of Raman scattering by a thin overlayer on a Ag surface by two orders of magnitude.
