非水体系中吡啶和乙腈在铂电极上竞争吸附的表面增强拉曼光谱研究

继非水体系中CO在过渡金属表面吸附的表面增强拉曼光谱（SERS）研究之后，本文是又一篇关于非水体系中过渡金属表面SERS研究的文章。从拉曼谱峰的变化结果发现，吡啶在Pt电极表面是强烈的化学吸附，并且由于其吸附的量和吸附取向随电位在不断地变化，与水体系中吡啶（Py)在Pt电极表面的吸附相比较，SERS谱峰除了强度较低之外，在可研究的电位区间、谱峰位置以及其随电位变化等方面都存在着不同，这缘于结构较为复杂的有机溶剂分子在电极表面组成了更为复杂的界面结构，造成固／液界面的电迁移等电极动力学过程发生了变化，为了说明这一现象，文中还采用强吸附离子I^-进行研究，得到相似的结果。

Metal–organic frameworks: a novel SERS substrate

We report the direct observation of surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) effect using metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) as substrates. Without the aid of any metal colloids or enhancing agents, the SERS signals of methyl orange (MO) adsorbed in MOFs were observed and even remained active if the organic linkers in MOFs were completely removed by high temperature and O₂ plasma treatments. It implies that the SERS active site is at the metal oxide clusters. The ultraviolet‐visible spectra of MO, MOFs, and MO–MOF complexes show that absorption peaks are far from laser excitation line. Thus, conventional resonance enhancement effect should be ruled out, and charge‐transfer mechanism is the most likely scenario responsible for the observed SERS effect. Density functional theory (DFT) was used to interpret the chemical enhancement mechanism and the adsorption orientation‐dependent SERS spectra in our observation. The preferred adsorption orientations calculated by DFT method are consistent with the observed SERS results. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

The origin of ultrasensitive SERS sensing beyond plasmonics

Plasmon-free surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates have attracted tremendous attention for their abundant sources, excellent chemical stability, superior biocompatibility, good signal uniformity, and unique selectivity to target molecules. Recently, researchers have made great progress in fabricating novel plasmon-free SERS substrates and exploring new enhancement strategies to improve their sensitivity. This review summarizes the recent developments of plasmon-free SERS substrates and specially focuses on the enhancement mechanisms and strategies. Furthermore, the promising applications of plasmon-free SERS substrates in biomedical diagnosis, metal ions and organic pollutants sensing, chemical and biochemical reactions monitoring, and photoelectric characterization are introduced. Finally, current challenges and future research opportunities in plasmon-free SERS substrates are briefly discussed.     

Fabrication of nanostructured silver substrates for surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy

Four nanostructured Ag substrates have been fabricated with different surface morphologies and tested with surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) experiments by adsorption of adenine. Their SERS efficiency has been compared and related to the surface roughness resulting from atomic force microscopy measurements. Chemical etching of silver by thiourea/Fe(III)nitrate produces homogeneously roughened plates, exhibiting the largest three-dimensional surface and the best SERS enhancement. They mostly exhibit surface protrusions with sizes around 200 nm, thus matching the best condition for obtaining SERS enhancement by laser excitation at 785 nm. This is quite important in the case of biomolecules, whose samples often present strong fluorescence bands, which usually are not observed with red-shifted exciting lines. Moreover, these Ag platforms, owing to their uniform nanostructured surfaces, are suitable for obtaining reproducible results from microRaman investigation. In conclusion, the present nanofabrication of Ag surfaces allows obtaining SERS-active substrates, which combine high reproducibility and sensitivity and can be successfully employed in the molecular recognition of different organic ligands or biomolecules like nucleic acids and proteins.     

Spectral characterization and intracellular detection of Surface‐Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS)‐encoded plasmonic gold nanostars

Plasmonic gold nanostars offer a new platform for surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). However, due to the presence of organic surfactant on the nanoparticles, SERS characterization and application of nanostar ensembles in solution have been challenging. Here, we applied our newly developed surfactant‐free nanostars for SERS characterization and application. The SERS enhancement factors (EF) of silver spheres, gold spheres and nanostars of similar sizes and concentration were compared. Under 785 nm excitation, nanostars and silver spheres have similar EF, and both are much stronger than gold spheres. Having plasmon matching the incident energy and multiple ‘hot spots’ on the branches bring forth strong SERS response without the need to aggregate. Intracellular detection of silica‐coated SERS‐encoded nanostars was also demonstrated in breast cancer cells. The non‐aggregated field enhancement makes the gold nanostar ensemble a promising agent for SERS bioapplications. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Effect of surface morphology on surface‐enhanced Raman scattering of 4‐aminobenzenethiol adsorbed on gold substrates

The substrate‐dependent surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) of 4‐aminobenzenethiol (4‐ABT) adsorbed on Au surfaces has been investigated. 4‐ABT is one of the very unique adsorbate molecules whose SERS spectral patterns are known to be noticeably dependent on the relative contribution of chemical enhancement mechanism vs electromagnetic enhancement mechanism. The SERS spectral patterns of 4‐ABT adsorbed on gold substrates with various surface morphology have thus been analyzed in terms of the symmetry types of the vibrational modes. Almost invisibly weak b₂ type vibrational bands were observed in the SERS spectra of the 4‐ABT adsorbed on Au colloidal sol nanoparticles or commercially available Au micro‐powders because of the weak contribution of the chemical enhancement. However, greatly enhanced b₂ vibrational bands were observed in the spectra of the 4‐ABT molecules adsorbed on the synthesized Au(Zn) sponge or the electrochemically roughened Au(ORC) foil caused by the strong contribution of the chemical enhancement mechanism.

Characterization of copper SERS-active substrates prepared by electrochemical deposition

Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) on copper substrates of various morphologies, prepared by electrochemical deposition on platinum targets, was investigated. The substrate preparation procedures differed by the coating bath compositions, applied current densities and the duration of individual steps. The surface morphology of the substrates was visualized by means of Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). SERS spectra of selected organic thiols were measured and the relation between SERS spectral intensity and the surface structure of SERS-active substrates was studied. It has been shown that good Raman surface enhancement can be achieved on the copper substrates prepared by electrochemical deposition from ammoniac baths. Copper substrates fabricated from acidic baths did not show efficient Raman surface enhancement. The results of microscopic measurements demonstrated that the average surface roughness value does not play a substantial role, whereas the shape of the surface nanostructures is a key parameter.     

Substituent effect on structure and surface activity of N‐methylpyridinium salts studied by FT‐IR,FT‐RS,SERS and DFT calculations

The substituent effect on structure and surface activity of mono‐ and disubstituted N‐methylpyridinium salts was investigated by means of Raman, infrared and surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). The significant differences observed in Raman and infrared spectra have been correlated with marker bands assigned to in‐plane and out‐of‐plane vibrations, respectively. This vibrational analysis, complemented by quantum chemical calculations (B3LYP/6‐311++G(d,p)) was a basis for investigation of the surface activity of the studied compounds. Significant differences in their SERS spectra related to the enhancement mechanism and adsorbate orientation have been observed and analyzed. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
