Enhancement factor distribution around a single SERS Hot-spot and its relation to Single Molecule detection
E. C. Le Ru, P. G. Etchegoin, M. Meyer
We provide the theoretical framework to understand the phenomenology and statistics of single-molecule (SM) signals arising in Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) under the pr…
A conclusive demonstration of vibrational pumping and determination of SERS cross sections
R. C. Maher, P. G. Etchegoin, E. C. Le Ru +1
We provide conclusive demonstration of vibrational pumping under Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) conditions by performing anti-Stokes/Stokes ratio measurements down to 10…
Temperature dependent anti-Stokes/Stokes ratios under Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) conditions
R. C. Maher, L. F. Cohen, J. C. Gallop +2
We make systematic measurements of Raman anti-Stokes/Stokes (aS/S) ratios using two different laser excitations (514 and 633 nm) of rhodamine 6G (RH6G) on dried Ag colloids over a…
Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) and Surface-Enhanced Fluorescence (SEF) in the context of modified spontaneous emission
E. C. Le Ru, P. G. Etchegoin
Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) and Surface-Enhanced Fluorescence (SEF) are studied within the framework of modified Spontaneous Emission (SE), and similarities and differ…
Bi-Analyte Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering for unambiguous evidence of single molecule detection
E. C. Le Ru, M. Meyer, P. G. Etchegoin
A method is proposed to pin down an unambiguous proof for single molecule surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). The simultaneous use of two analyte molecules enables a clear…
Plasmon-mediated Polarization Anomalies in Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS)
E. C. Le Ru, P. G. Etchegoin
We discuss the effect of the local field polarization in metallic nanostructures where large field enhancements can be induced by excitation of localized surface plasmons. To demon…
