چکیده

The adsorption structure and binding of phenyl isocyanide (PNC), 2,6-dimethyl phenyl isocyanide (DMPNC), and benzyl isocyanide (BZI) on gold nanoparticle surfaces have been studied by means of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). PNC, DMPNC, and BZI have been found to adsorb on gold assuming a standing geometry with respect to the surfaces. The presence of the nu(CH) band in the SERS spectra denotes a vertical orientation of the phenyl ring of PNC, DMPNC, and BZI on Au. The lack of a substantial red shift and significant band broadening of the ring breathing modes implied that a direct ring pi orbital interaction with metal substrates should be quite low. For PNC, the band ascribed to the C-NC stretching vibration was found to almost disappear after adsorption on Au. On the other hand, the C-NC band remained quite strong for DMPNC after adsorption. This result suggests a rather bent angle of C-N[triple bond]C: for the nitrogen atom of the NC binding group on the surfaces, whereas a linear angle of C-N[triple bond]C: should be more favorable on gold surfaces due to an intramolecular steric hindrance of its two methyl groups. SERS of BZI on gold nanoparticles also supports a bent angle of :C[triple bond]N-CH2 for its nitrogen atom, suggesting a preference of sp3 (or sp2) hybridization for the nitrogen atom.

Spectroscopic analysis of L-histidine adsorbed on gold and silver nanoparticle surfaces investigated by surface-enhanced Raman scattering.

The adsorption of l-histidine on gold (Au) and silver (Ag) nanoparticle surfaces has been comparatively analyzed by means of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The SERS spectra of l-histidine on Ag were found to be quite different from those on Au, indicating dissimilar adsorption structures depending on metal substrates. Most peaks of l-histidine on Ag appeared to be due to coordination...

Probing confined phonon modes in individual CdSe nanoplatelets using surface-enhanced Raman scattering.

The phonon modes of individual ultrathin CdSe nanoplatelets are investigated using surface-enhanced Raman scattering in a tightly confined plasmonic geometry. The surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectra, taken on single nanoplatelets sandwiched between a gold nanoparticle and a gold surface, reveal a phonon doublet arising from oscillations perpendicular to and within the platelet plane. The ...
