One of the main challenges is the reproducibility and uniformity of SERS substrates, which can affect the reliability and quantitative analysis of SERS measurements. Efforts are being made to develop ...

Now, researchers at Northwestern University in the US have overcome this problem by adding a self-assembled monolayer of hydrophobic and hydrophilic molecules to a standard SERS substrate to make ...

I have taken my education in Raman spectroscopy and surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) from the University of Wyoming and applied it to the development of SERS substrates and applications. I am ...
