Preparation and Characterization of Perforated SERS Active Array for Particle Trapping and Sensitive Molecular Analysis

A gold-coated array of flow-through inverse pyramids applicable as substrate for entrapment and immobilization of micro-objects and for surface enhanced Raman spectroscopic measurements was fabricated using bulk micromachining techniques from silicon. Surface morphology, optical reflectance, immobil...
