Estimating the Analytical and Surface Enhancement Factors in Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS): A Novel Physical Chemistry and Nanotechnology Laboratory Experiment

Abstract: R ecently, the National Science Foundation projected that the current 10-billion dollar nanotechnology sector will employ 2 million workers, including as many as 1 million workers in the United States. 1 It is expected that over 80% of the jobs created in this sector will require trained individuals in nanoscience. However, little training at the undergraduate level has been initiated to provide highly specialized scientists to this rapidly developing field. The proposed laboratory experiment, which was implem… Show more

“…The final colloid had a characteristic golden yellow color ( Figure 1B). 22,23 The UV-Vis absorption spectrum of this colloid had a typical sharp, symmetrical surface plasmon peak (SPR) at 394 nm ( Figure 1C). The Raman spectrum of the original Creighton colloid and the final 100-kD retentate presented only three vibrational modes, namely the bending (1640 cm …”
