Particle-dressed, SiO2 shell-isolated cavity architectures were fabricated. These architectures, owing to their structured surface and substantial hot spots created by particle–cavity interaction, showed reproducible, improved surface-enhanced Raman scattering activity relative to Au nanoparticles immobilized on a glass slide.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
