Tip Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy

A tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) system based on an atomic force microscope (AFM) and radially polarized laser beam was developed. A TERS probe with plasmon resonance wavelength matching the excitation wavelength was prepared with the help of dark-field micrographs. The intrinsic photoluminescence (PL) from the silver (Ag)-coated TERS probe induced by localized surface plasmon resonance contains information about the near-field enhanced electromagnetic field intensity of the probe. Therefore, we used the intensity change of Ag PL to evaluate the stability of the Ag-coated probe during TERS experiments. Tracking the Ag PL of the TERS probe was helpful to detect probe damage and hotspot alignment. Our setup was successfully used for the TERS imaging of single-walled carbon nanotubes, which demonstrated that the Ag PL of the TERS probe is a good criterion to assist in the hotspot alignment procedure required for TERS experiments. This method lowers the risk of contamination and damage of the precious TERS probe, making it worthwhile for wide adoption in TERS experiments.

Results are presented illustrating the use of tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) and imaging in a top-illumination geometry. A radially polarized beam is used to generate an electric field component in the direction of beam propagation, normal to the surface, resulting in a 5× increased enhancement compared to a linearly polarized beam. This multiplicative enhancement facilitates a discrimination of the near-field signal from the far-field Raman background. The top illumination configuration facilitates the application of TERS for investigating molecules on a variety of surfaces, such as Au, glass, and Si. The near-field Raman spectra of Si(100), rhodamine B, brilliant cresyl blue, and single wall carbon nanotubes are presented. Sufficient enhancement is obtained to permit a sub-diffraction-limited resolution Raman imaging of the surface distribution of large bundles of carbon nanotubes of various diameters.
