Giant enhancement of the Raman response due to one-dimensional ZnO nanostructures.

چکیده
We observed giant enhancement of the Raman intensity from 4-Mpy molecules adsorbed on semiconducting one-dimensional ZnO nanostructures, nanowires and nanocones, without involving any noble metals. Interestingly, the enhancement is strongly dependent on the geometry of ZnO nanostructures and can mainly be explained by the cavity-like structural resonance of the electric field. Our results can be applied to systematically create hot spots for Raman signal enhancement using one-dimensional semiconducting nanomaterials.

We present a novel method for direct, fast, nonambiguous, and nondestructive identification of the growth direction and orientation of individual ZnO nanostructures in the device-ready environment by exploiting high-resolution confocal Raman mapping. Various features of the Raman spectrum of ZnO nanostructures, vapor deposition grown nanobelts and peptide-assisted vertical nanorods, were found ...
