SURFACE ENHANCED RAMAN SCATTERING SUBSTRATES CONSUMABLES FOR RAMAN SPECTROSCOPY

摘要

A SERS-active structure including a substrate and at least one nano-pillar created on the substrate. The at least one nano-pillar includes a core including a first material and a coating including a SERS-active material. Also disclosed are methods for forming a SERS-active structure and methods for performing SERS with SERS-active structures.
