Metallic nanostructure geometry controls surface plasmons for enhanced spectroscopy substrates. This review details designing nanostructures for surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and other spectroscopies like SEIRA.

Area of Science:

  • Plasmonics
  • Nanophotonics
  • Spectroscopy

Background:
