Surface-enhanced Raman Spectroscopy Substrates Based on Nanoporous Silicon and Pattern Transfer

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering enhances the weak Raman scattering by using a roughened metal-coated surface as a catalyst. Roughness in the nanometer range provides the best enhancement. The nanostructures for the surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) substrates, in this work, are generated...
