چکیده
Chalcogenopyrylium nanotags demonstrate an unprecedented SERS performance with a retina safe, 1550 nm laser excitation. These unique nanotags consisting of chalcogenopyrylium dyes and 100 nm gold nanoparticles produce exceptional SERS signals with picomolar detection limits obtained at this extremely red-shifted and eye-safe laser excitation.

Sensitive SERS nanotags for use with a hand-held 1064 nm Raman spectrometer
This is the first report of the use of a hand-held 1064 nm Raman spectrometer combined with red-shifted surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) nanotags to provide an unprecedented performance in the short-wave infrared (SWIR) region. A library consisting of 17 chalcogenopyrylium nanotags produce extraordinary SERS responses with femtomolar detection limits being obtained using the portable in...
متن کاملExtreme red shifted SERS nanotags.
Surfaced enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) nanotags operating with 1280 nm excitation were constructed from reporter molecules selected from a library of 14 chalcogenopyrylium dyes containing phenyl, 2-thienyl, and 2-selenophenyl substituents and a surface of hollow gold nanoshells (HGNs). These 1280 SERS nanotags are unique as they have multiple chalcogen atoms available which allow them to ads...
متن کامل1064 nm SERS of NIR active hollow gold nanotags.
Surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) tags are in situ probes that can provide sensitive and selective probes for optical analysis in biological materials. Engineering tags for use in the near infrared (NIR) region is of particular interest since there is an uncongested spectral window for optical analysis due to the low background absorption and scattering from many molecules. An improved s...
