Tip-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy of Benzenethiol Adsorbed on Au and Pt Single-Crystal Surfaces

A tip for surface scientists: Tip‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) was used to record surface Raman spectra of benzenethiol and pyridine‐4‐thiol adsorbed on Au and Pt single‐crystal surfaces (see picture). The benzenethiol spectra on the two surfaces are distinctly different. This result illustrat...

Summary:A tip for surface scientists: Tip‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) was used to record surface Raman spectra of benzenethiol and pyridine‐4‐thiol adsorbed on Au and Pt single‐crystal surfaces (see picture). The benzenethiol spectra on the two surfaces are distinctly different. This result illustrates the power of TERS as a diagnostic tool with high spatial resolution for surface studies.
