Surface-enhanced Raman scattering and density functional theory study of selected-lanthanide-citrate complexes (lanthanide: La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, and Gd)

Hao Jin, Tamitake Itoh, Yuko S. Yamamoto

In this study, we combined the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) with density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the SERS spectra of lanthanide (Ln)-citrate…
