Surface enhanced vibrational spectroscopy

TLDR
In this paper, the nature and properties of surface-enhanced vibrational spectra of molecules adsorbed on surfaces that can enhance the absorption and the emission of electromagnetic radiation are discussed.
Abstract
The nature and properties of surface-enhanced vibrational spectra of molecules adsorbed on surfaces that can enhance the absorption and the emission of electromagnetic radiation are discussed. Examples of surface-enhanced resonant Raman scattering, surface-enhanced Raman scattering in the near-infrared and surface-enhanced infrared are given. The rough surfaces used are metal island films coated with a nanometric organic film using the Langmuir-Blodgett technique or deposited by vacuum evaporation.

Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering Enhancement Factors: A Comprehensive Study

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an in-depth study of surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) enhancement factors and cross-sections, including several issues often overlooked, and demonstrate that SERS EFs as low as 107, as opposed to the figure of 1014 often claimed in the literature, are sufficient for SERS applications.

Plasmonic nanoantennas: fundamentals and their use in controlling the radiative properties of nanoemitters.

TL;DR: Plasmonic resonances in nanoantennas overcome constraints on the resolution to which an object can be imaged, as well as the size of the transverse cross section of efficient guiding structures to the wavelength dimension, allowing unprecedented control of light-matter interactions within subwavelength volumes.
