Abstract

Recent progress in the field of plasmonics, and the subwavelength confinement and manipulation of optical fields with metallic nanostructures, offers many new opportunities for the design of novel surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) substrates. The addition of surface plasmon (SP) optical elements, such as Bragg mirrors and surface cavities, allows further substrate optimization. Here, we demonstrate nanostructured SP optical elements as a SERS substrate that provides flexible optimization, tuning, as well as enhancement factors of 107 to 108. A confocal scanning microscope is used to image and characterize the SERS substrates.
