Abstract

Plasmon resonance of gold nanoparticles is responsible of the electromagnetic (EM) Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) effect. Interaction of an amorphous matrix with a SERS substrate was studied. Thin films with different thickness of amorphous TiO 2 coated on a Klarite® substrate show a 100 times enhancement of the Raman signal. Distance dependence of the SERS interaction was shown to be less than 60 nm.
