Surface enhanced Raman scattering on molecule junction
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract Surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is a powerful tool to study a small number of molecules adsorbed on metal surface. Recently, SERS is utilized to investigate the atomic structure of the molecule junction, which is a key component of molecular electronic devices. It is because the molecule is trapped between nano gap electrodes, and strong enhanced field is formed in the gap. The Raman signal from the molecule in the molecular junction is selectively observed. The SERS was first studied for the molecule junction, where small number of molecules bridge metal electrodes. Currently, the SERS of the single molecule junction is also reported. In this review, we discuss the history of the SERS of the molecule junction, and application of SERS to the molecule junction. Structural change induced by the application of the voltage across the junction and the chemical reaction on the single molecule junction have been reported with SERS.
