Vibrational Raman optical activity (ROA) spectra were calculated under off-resonance, near-resonance, and at-resonance conditions for (A) and under off-resonance conditions for (B) using a new driver software for calculating the ROA intensities from complex (damped) time-dependent linear response Kohn-Sham theory. The off-resonance spectra of A and B show many similarities. At an incident laser wavelength of 532 nm, used in commercial ROA spectrometers, the spectrum of A is enhanced by near-resonance with the ligand-field transitions of the complex. The near-resonance spectrum exhibits many qualitative differences compared with the off-resonance case, but it remains bi-signate. Even under full resonance with the ligand-field electronic transitions, the ROA spectrum of A remains bi-signate when the electronic transitions are broadened such as to yield absorption line widths that are comparable with those in the experimental UV-vis absorption and electronic circular dichroism spectra.

Label-free surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) combined with machine learning (ML) techniques presents a promising approach for rapid pathogen identification. Previous studies have demonstrated that purine degradation metabolites are the primary contributors to SERS spectra; however, generating these distinguishable spectra typically requires a long incubation time (>10 h) at room temperature. Moreover, the lack of attention to spectral variations between strains of the same bacterial species has limited the generalizability of ML models in real-world applications.

The establishment of various molecular, physiological, and genetic markers for cellular senescence and aging-associated conditions has progressed the aging study. To identify such markers, a combination of optical, proteomic-, and sequencing-based tools is primarily used, often accompanying extrinsic labels. Yet, the tools for clinical detection at the molecular, cellular, and tissue levels are still lacking which profoundly hinders advancements in the specific detection and timely prevention of aging-related diseases and pathologies.

In this article, what we believe to be a novel dual-mode optical fiber sensor incorporating surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is proposed for ultra-trace Hg detection. The sensing probe comprises gold (Au)/graphene oxide (GO) composite membrane structure and Au nanospheres (AuNPs), which are connected via double-stranded DNA.

Dispersion curve analysis demonstrates cavity and surface plasmon modes in the 1D nanograting chips with periods of 400 nm and 800 nm. In this grating period range, the cut-off period is at a grating period of 644 nm under excitation with a wavelength of 670 nm.

Through a direct quantitative characterization of comparable waveguides formed from the two films, we find no observable autofluorescence for tantalum pentoxide waveguides. Our experimental sensitivity is limited by Raman scattering of the pump into our detection band and our measurements indicate that the autofluorescence of the tantalum pentoxide waveguides is more than 600 × smaller than that of silicon nitride waveguides.
