ABSTRACT
In 1997, the discovery of single molecule-surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SM-SERS) rekindled broad interests owing to its ultrahigh enhancement factor up to the 1014-1015 level. However, regretfully, the advantage of SM-SERS with an ultralow detection limit has not yet been fully utilized in commercialized applications. Here, we report a strategy, which we name confined-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, in which the overall Raman properties can be remarkably improved with in situ-formed active nanoshell on the surface of silver or gold nanoparticles. The nanoshell can confine and anchor molecules onto the surface of plasmonic nanoparticles and avoid desorption from hot spots so that the "on and off" blinking effect can be eliminated. It is the first time the single-molecule detection of analytes with super sensitivity, high stability, and reproducibility based on gold nanoparticles has been realized. In addition, this strategy is suitable for SERS detection in diverse molecule systems, including biomedical diagnosis, catalytic reaction, etc.
