Vibrational Spectra of Nucleotides in the Presence of the Au Cluster Enhancer in MD Simulation of a SERS Sensor.

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) nanoprobes have shown tremendous potential in in vivo imaging. The development of single oligomer resolution in the SERS promotes experiments on DNA and protein identification using SERS as a nanobiosensor. As Raman scanners rely on a multiple spectrum acquisition, faster imaging in real-time is required.
