Abstract

Rohit Chikkaraddy opened the discussion of the Introductory Lecture: Regarding quantifying the chemical enhancement, you showed a systematic change in the SERS enhancement for halide substituted molecules due to charge transfer from the metal. Is the extra enhancement due to an inherent increase in the Raman cross-section of the molecule? How do you go about referencing, as the charge transfer changes the vibrational frequency?
