Abstract

Surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) tags are in situ probes that can provide sensitive and selective probes for optical analysis in biological materials. Engineering tags for use in the near infrared (NIR) region is of particular interest since there is an uncongested spectral window for optical analysis due to the low background absorption and scattering from many molecules. An improved synthesis has resulted in the formation of hollow gold nanoshells (HGNs) with a localised surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) between 800 and 900 nm which provide effective SERS when excited at 1064 nm. Seven Raman reporters containing aromatic amine or thiol attachment groups were investigated. All were effective but 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene (BPE) and 4,4-azopyridine (AZPY) provided the largest enhancement. At approximately monolayer coverage, these two reporters appear to pack with the main axis of the molecule perpendicular or nearly perpendicular to the surface giving strong SERS and thus providing effective 1064 nm gold SERS nanotags.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
