چکیده
This article describes recent developments in the field of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) research. It begins with the early history of SERS as the first SERS spectrum was obtained from an electrochemical system of pyridine molecule adsorbed on roughened silver electrode, which led to the discovery of the SERS effect in the mid-1970s. The article also illustrates the various aspects of SERS research which includes SERS-active substrates, mechanism of SERS and its various applications. Special emphasis is given to the important features of electrochemical SERS, a special branch of SERS.

The active substrates in surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy were prepared through self-assembly of nanoparticles on functionalized glasses. Colloidal silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were prepared chemically in two different sizes by reduction of AgNO3 using trisodium citrate and sodium borohydride. Gold–silver core–shell nanoparticles were also prepared to compare between the o...
