Surface‐enhanced Raman sensors: early history and the development of sensors for quantitative biowarfare agent and glucose detection

TL;DR: In this paper, the SERS enhancement factor, EFSERS, is optimized when the energy of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) lies between energy of the excitation wavelength and the vibrational band of interest.

Hybrid nanostructures for SERS: materials development and chemical detection

TL;DR: In this article, a review focusing on recent developments in hybrid and nanostructured substrates for SERS (surface-enhanced Raman scattering) studies is presented, including polymer nanocomposites containing metal nanoparticles and coupled inorganic nanophases.
Journal ArticleDOI

SERS of molecules that do not adsorb on Ag surfaces: a metal–organic framework-based functionalization strategy

TL;DR: Concentration dependence and time resolved measurements provide evidence for the hypothesis that the vapors are reversibly adsorbed on the surfaces of MOF nanocrystals exposed at grain boundaries, which represents a generalized approach for confining aromatic molecules through interactions with the MOF surface, which can be applied for future SERS-based sensors.

Probing Single Molecules and Single Nanoparticles by Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering

TL;DR: In this article, surface-enhanced Raman scattering was used to detect single molecules and single nanoparticles at room temperature with the use of surface enhanced Raman, and the intrinsic Raman enhancement factors were on the order of 10 14 to 10 15, much larger than the ensemble-averaged values derived from conventional measurements.

Nanoparticles with Raman Spectroscopic Fingerprints for DNA and RNA Detection

TL;DR: Six dissimilar DNA targets with six Raman-labeled nanoparticle probes were distinguished, as well as two RNA targets with single nucleotide polymorphisms, and the current unoptimized detection limit of this method is 20 femtomolar.
