Plasmonics: Graphene crumpling
In surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), Raman scattering is strongly amplified by placing molecules in close proximity to a metal surface. Surface roughening is generally thought of as the simplest way to improve SERS sensitivity, but a variety of more precise methods have been explored including…
