SERS offers a greater signal-to-noise ratio than ordinary Raman spectroscopy, so it is useful in single-molecule detection or detecting analytes in low concentrations. Improvement of the spectroscopic ...

Every year, medical diagnostics are getting better and better thanks to the tremendous development of new methods that enable the precise detection of the many different molecules present in ...

A thin diamond film encapsulates gold nanoparticles into a reusable SERS substrate that survives acid, abrasion, and months ...

When an ecological disaster releases toxins into the environment, extensive sampling and analysis is vital to ensure the health and safety of the people affected. Surface-enhanced vibrational ...

Light-matter interaction is one of the most fundamental ways to explore the physical world. While the reflection and refraction of light reveal the structural characteristics of matter, inelastic ...

Lipid oxidation is a significant issue for the meat industry. This is because lipid oxidation can have a detrimental impact on not only sensory quality, in terms of odor and flavor, but it can also ...
