Abstract

We discuss the application of gold nanorods for forming SERS substrates for chemical and biological sensing. Two approaches are considered: (1) formation of planar arrays on silicon wafers by using suspensions of gold nanorods; and (2) a new approach based on gold nanorod powders that can be easily dissolved in aqueous media. Both SERS platforms are characterized and their SERS enhancement factors are compared.
