Description:: The work presented in this dissertation is centered on experimental efforts to maximize the sensitivity of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) and tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) toward their application in ultrasensitive nanoscale chemical analysis. The work focuses on fundamental studies of the plasmonic properties of silver nanostructures, and how those properties...

Description:: The detection of bio-molecules (e.g. nucleic acids and proteins) is the bedrock upon which research in the life sciences and diagnostic medicine rests. For nucleic acids, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is the ultimate in terms of target detection sensitivity (10s - 100s of copies/sample). For proteins, the enzyme-linked immunosorbent...
