Published: March 2011

We have demonstrated the essential nanogap effects on surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) signals obtained from two diagonally aligned gold nanoparticles with several nanometre separations, which were precisely fabricated on a glass substrate. This is the first proof of principle for extracting the light localization effects on SERS due to the formation of nanogaps from experimentally observed SERS signals.
