摘要
Out of the frying pan: Hot spots can greatly increase the sensitivity of surface-enhanced Raman scattering, but they remain poorly understood. A new strategy based on plasma etching (see picture) can be used to isolate and exclusively probe the SERS-active molecules adsorbed in the hot-spot region between two silver nanocubes.
