Abstract
The surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectrum of poly(vinyl) pyrrolidone (PVP) molecules capping 50 nm silver nanocubes assembled in a monolayer via the Langmuir−Blodgett (LB) technique is studied at different surface pressures (at different nanoparticle densities). The observed correlation between the intensity of different SERS bands of the PVP with the nanoparticle density and those of the extinction intensity of the localized surface plasmon resonance bands (as a measure of the surface plasmon field) suggests the following: (1) the observed SERS enhancement results mostly from surface fields of the aggregated nanoparticles; and (2) the relative intensities of the different Raman bands are in reasonable agreement with those expected from the electromagnetic mechanism of enhancement. Besides the large surface plasmon field used in the Raman scattering enhancement, the broad SPR band of the aggregated nanocubes provides an additional advantage in the analytical applications of Raman spectroscopy.
