A metal-dielectric-graphene sandwich for surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy

Nanoscale. 2014 Sep 7;6(17):9925-9. doi: 10.1039/c4nr02301c.

Abstract

The Raman intensity of Rhodamine B (RhB) is enhanced by inserting a thin high κ dielectric layer which reduces the surface plasmon damping at the gold-graphene interface. The results indicate that the Raman intensity increases sharply by plasmonic resonance enhancement while maintaining efficient fluorescence quenching with optimized dielectric layer thickness.
