Surface-enhanced Raman scattering of 4-aminobenzenethiol on gold: the concept of threshold energy in charge transfer enhancement.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Some threshold energy is required for 4-aminobenzenethiol to occupy the gold surface sites capable of leading to the appearance of surface-enhanced Raman scattering peaks via a charge transfer resonance enhancement mechanism.

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...
متن کاملRaman spectral characteristics of 4-aminobenzenethiol adsorbed on ZnO nanorod arrays.
Interest in the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) of 4-aminobenzenethiol (4-ABT) has surged recently. The SERS spectral features are highly dependent on the measurement conditions; a notable example is the appearance of b2-type bands that are not evident in the normal Raman (NR) spectrum. In an effort to discover new information and make any necessary corrections, we measured the Raman s...

A nanogap formed by a metal nanoparticle and a flat metal substrate is one kind of “hot site” for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The characteristics of a typical nanogap formed by a planar Au and either an Au and Ag nanoparticle have been well studied using 4-aminobenzenethiol (4-ABT) as a probe. 4-ABT is, however, an unusual molecule in the sense that its SERS spectral feature is de...
متن کاملTrinitrotoluene explosive lights up ultrahigh Raman scattering of nonresonant molecule on a top-closed silver nanotube array.
The highest Raman enhancement factors are obtained in a double resonance: molecular electronic resonance and plasmon resonance with a "hot spot" in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). However, for most molecules of interest the double resonance is not realized with the excitation frequencies normally used in Raman. The latter may limit the practical applications of SERS for trace analysis...
متن کاملNonresonant chemical mechanism in surface-enhanced Raman scattering of pyridine on M@Au12 clusters.
By employing density functional theory (DFT), this study presents a detailed analysis of nonresonant surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) of pyridine on M@Au12 (M = V(-), Nb(-), Ta(-), Cr, Mo, W, Mn(+), Tc(+), and Re(+))-the stable 13-atom neutral and charged gold buckyball clusters. Changing the core atom in M@Au12 enabled us to modulate the direct chemical interactions between pyridine an...
