Abstract: | We investigated the effect of optical thick metal films on the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) activity of individual Au nanoparticle (NP) monomers and dimers. The film presence is revealed to be positive for the SERS activity of individual NP monomers, while it is not always positive for the electromagnetic enhancement at hot spots for SERS of the dimer, which is explained well by our numerical simulations. The polarized SERS signals from the NP dimer are elucidated well in terms of the plasmon hybridization of the dimer. SERS contributions both from individual NP surfaces and the junction between the NP and its supporting substrate were discussed as well. |
