Abstract

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is a powerful tool for studying nanoscale molecule-metal interfaces across a range of electrochemical applications. SERS combines molecular-level information with a high degree of surface specificity, making it an ideal tool for understanding interfacial processes, from understanding how analytes and electrolytes organize near metal surfaces to following surface-mediated reactions in real time. However, because SERS relies on the excitation of localized surface plasmons, additional effects such as the production of hot charge carriers and photothermal heating can impact electrochemical SERS signals. These effects must also be considered when using SERS for quantitative electrochemical studies.
