Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a specialized kind of Raman spectroscopy, in which the analyte of interest interacts with gold or silver nanostructures to greatly boost the Raman signal. It allows Raman spectroscopy, a method typically used for identifying analytes, to be used for the detection of trace levels of potentially hazardous or physiologically significant substances.
