چکیده

We demonstrate label-free detection of lipid vesicles and polystyrene beads freely diffusing in aqueous solution using surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The signals observed enable real-time identification and monitoring of individual particles interacting with the SERS substrate. SERS is demonstrated as a label-free method capable of monitoring transient species in solution on the millisecond time scale.

Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering of Crystal Violet with Low Concentrations Using Self-Assembled Silver and Gold-Silver Core-Shell Nanoparticles

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...

DNA origami based assembly of gold nanoparticle dimers for surface-enhanced Raman scattering.

Plasmonic sensors are extremely promising candidates for label-free single-molecule analysis but require exquisite control over the physical arrangement of metallic nanostructures. Here we employ self-assembly based on the DNA origami technique for accurate positioning of individual gold nanoparticles. Our innovative design leads to strong plasmonic coupling between two 40 nm gold nanoparticles...

Label-free, in situ SERS monitoring of individual DNA hybridization in microfluidics.

We present label-free, in situ monitoring of individual DNA hybridization in microfluidics. By immobilizing molecular sentinel probes on nanoporous gold disks, we demonstrate sensitivity approaching the single-molecule limit via surface-enhanced Raman scattering which provides robust signals without photobleaching for more than an hour. We further demonstrate that a target concentration as low ...
