Observation of no significant surface enhancement of Raman scattering from benzoic acid molecules on mercury

Abstract: There is controversy regarding the surface enhancement of Raman scattering due to liquid Hg, and the enhancement of benzoic acid molecules adsorbed on liquid Hg has been determined to be essentially zero. However, if the noise error bar is taken into account, the maximum enhancement is estimated to be less than 30. The same enhancement was observed when the temperature was reduced in solidifying liquid Hg.

“…In other cases, experimental conditions were not conducive to making reliable judgment as to the reasons for the observation of sufficiently intensive signals. The data for mercury [140,141] and cadmium [142] had not been reproduced in other works [10,12,14,143]. With nickel in vacuum, where the most intensive SERS spectra for pyridine were observed [133], the surface could have been oxidized, which follows from similarity of excitation spectra of RS of pyridine on nickel and nickel(I) oxide.…”
