Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has evolved significantly over fifty years into a powerful analytical technique. This review aims to achieve five main goals. (1) Providing a comprehensive history of SERS's discovery, its experimental and theoretical foundations, its connections to advances in nanoscience and plasmonics, and highlighting collective contributions of key pioneers. (2) Classifying four pivotal phases from the view of innovative methodologies in the fifty-year progression: initial development (mid-1970s to mid-1980s), downturn (mid-1980s to mid-1990s), nano-driven transformation (mid-1990s to mid-2010s), and recent boom (mid-2010s onwards). (3) Illuminating the entire journey and framework of SERS and its family members such as tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) and shell-isolated nanoparticle-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SHINERS) and highlighting the trajectory. (4) Emphasizing the importance of innovative methods to overcome developmental bottlenecks, thereby expanding the material, morphology, and molecule generalities to leverage SERS as a versatile technique for broad applications. (5) Extracting the invaluable spirit of groundbreaking discovery and perseverant innovations from the pioneers and trailblazers. These key inspirations include proactively embracing and leveraging emerging scientific technologies, fostering interdisciplinary cooperation to transform the impossible into reality, and persistently searching to break bottlenecks even during low-tide periods, as luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity.

Abstract
A new member is incorporated into the SERS active materials family daily as a consequence of advances in materials science. Furthermore, it has been demonstrated that MXenes, which display remarkable physicochemical characteristics, are also encompassed within this family. This Review offers a comprehensive and systematic assessment of the potential of MXene structures in the context of SERS applications. First, the historical development of SERS-active substrates and the evolution of various substrates over time are analyzed. Subsequently, the formation and structural properties of MXene structures were subjected to a comprehensive and detailed examination. The principal objective of this Review is to elucidate the rationale behind the preference for MXene as a SERS-active substrate, given its distinctive physicochemical properties. In this context, while MXene's abundant surface functional groups represent a significant advantage, its high electrical conductivity, suitable flexibility, extensive two-dimensional surface areas, and antibacterial activity also warrant consideration in terms of potential applications. It is emphasized that, for MXene nanolayers to demonstrate optimal performance in SERS applications, a plan should be devised to consider these features. By increasing readers' awareness of using MXene as a SERS active substrate, potential opportunities for future application areas may be created.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neurosurgery demands exceptional precision due to the brain's complex and delicate structures, necessitating precise targeting of pathological targets. Achieving optimal outcomes depends on the surgeon's ability to accurately differentiate between healthy and pathological tissues during operations. Raman spectroscopy (RS) has emerged as a promising innovation, offering real-time, in vivo non-invasive biochemical tissue characterization. This literature review evaluates the current research on RS applications in intraoperative neurosurgery, emphasizing its potential to enhance surgical precision and patient outcomes. METHODS Following PRISMA guidelines, a comprehensive systematic review was conducted using PubMed to extract relevant peer-reviewed articles. The inclusion criteria focused on original research discussing real-time RS applications with human tissue samples in or near the operating room, excluding retrospective studies, reviews, non-human research, and other non-relevant publications. RESULTS Our findings demonstrate that RS significantly improves tumor margin delineation, with handheld devices achieving high sensitivity and specificity. Stimulated Raman Histology (SRH) provides rapid, high-resolution tissue images comparable to traditional histopathology but with reduced time to diagnosis. Additionally, RS shows promise in identifying tumor types and grades, aiding precise surgical decision-making. RS techniques have been particularly beneficial in enhancing the accuracy of glioma surgeries, where distinguishing between tumor and healthy tissue is critical. By providing real-time molecular data, RS aids neurosurgeons in maximizing the extent of resection (EOR) while minimizing damage to normal brain tissue, potentially improving patient outcomes and reducing recurrence rates. CONCLUSIONS This review underscores the transformative potential of RS in neurosurgery, advocating for continued innovation and research to fully realize its benefits. Despite its substantial potential, further research is needed to validate RS's clinical utility and cost-effectiveness.

Abstract
An analyzed substance's signal intensity and detection sensitivity in surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) significantly depend on the size and agglomeration degree of nanoparticles (NPs) forming the enhancing structure. Structures were manufactured by aerosol dry printing (ADP), where NPs' agglomeration depends on printing conditions and additional particle modification techniques. The influence of agglomeration degree on SERS signal enhancement was studied in three types of printed structures using the methylene blue model molecule as an analyte. We demonstrated that the ratio between individual NPs and agglomerates in a studied structure strongly affects SERS signal amplification, and structures formed mainly from non-agglomerated NPs enhance the signal better. In this sense, aerosol NPs modified by pulsed laser radiation provide better results than thermally modified NPs, since in laser modification a larger number of individual NPs is observed due to the absence of secondary agglomeration effects in the gas stream. However, increasing gas flow may minimize the secondary agglomeration, since the time allotted for the agglomeration processes is reduced. In this paper, we show how different NPs' agglomeration tendencies influence SERS enhancement to demonstrate the process of using ADP to form inexpensive and highly efficient SERS substrates with huge application potential.

Abstract
As energy demands increase, electrocatalysis serves as a vital tool in energy conversion. Elucidating electrocatalytic mechanisms using in situ spectroscopic characterization techniques can provide experimental guidance for preparing high-efficiency electrocatalysts. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) can provide rich spectral information for ultratrace surface species and is extremely well suited to studying their activity. To improve the material and morphological universalities, researchers have employed different kinds of nanostructures that have played important roles in the development of SERS technologies. Different strategies, such as so-called borrowing enhancement from shell-isolated modes and shell-isolated nanoparticle-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SHINERS)-satellite structures, have been proposed to obtain highly effective Raman enhancement, and these methods make it possible to apply SERS to various electrocatalytic systems. Here, we discuss the development of SERS technology, focusing on its applications in different electrocatalytic reactions (such as oxygen reduction reactions) and at different nanostructure surfaces, and give a brief outlook on its development.

Abstract
As one of the inorganic pollutants with the highest concentration in the waste water of gold tailings using biohydrometallurgy, thiocyanate (SCN-) was effectively degraded in this research adopting a two-stage activated sludge biological treatment, and the corresponding degradation pathway and microbial community characteristics in this process were also studied. The results showed that SCN- at 1818.00 mg L-1 in the influent decreased to 0.68 mg L-1 after flowing through the two-stage activated sludge units. Raman spectroscopy was used to study the changes of relevant functional groups, finding that SCN- was degraded in the COS pathway. Based on 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing technology, the microbial diversity in this system was analyzed, and the results indicated that Thiobacillus played a major role in degrading SCN-, of which the abundance in these two activated sludge units was 32.05% and 20.37%, respectively. The results further revealed the biological removal mechanism of SCN- in gold mine tailings wastewater.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is one of the most special and important Raman techniques. An apparent Raman signal can be observed when the target molecules are absorbed onto the surface of the SERS substrates, especially on the "hot spots" of the substrates. Early research focused on exploring the highly active SERS substrates and their detection applications in label-free SERS technology. However, it is a great challenge to use these label-free SERS sensors for detecting hydrophobic or non-polar molecules, especially in complex systems or at low concentrations. Therefore, antibodies, aptamers, and antimicrobial peptides have been used to effectively improve the target selectivity and meet the analysis requirements. Among these selective elements, aptamers are easy to use for synthesis and modifications, and their stability, affinity and specificity are extremely good; they have been successfully used in a variety of testing areas. The combination of SERS detection technology and aptamer recognition ability not only improved the selection accuracy of target molecules, but also improved the sensitivity of the analysis. Variations of aptamer-based SERS sensors have been developed and have achieved satisfactory results in the analysis of small molecules, pathogenic microorganism, mycotoxins, tumor marker and other functional molecules, as well as in successful photothermal therapy of tumors. Herein, we present the latest advances of the aptamer-based SERS sensors, as well as the assembling sensing platforms and the strategies for signal amplification. Furthermore, the existing problems and potential trends of the aptamer-based SERS sensors are discussed.

Abstract
Noble transition metals, like palladium (Pd) and platinum (Pt), have been well-known for their excellent catalytic and electrochemical properties. However, they have been considered non-active for surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). In this work, we explore the scattering contributions of Pd and Pt for the detection of organic molecules. The Pd and Pt nanostructures were synthesized on silicon substrate using a modified galvanic displacement method. The results show Pt nanoparticles and dendritic Pd nanostructures with controlled density and size. The influence of surfactants, including sodium dodecyl sulfate and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, on the size and morphology of the nanostructures was investigated. The Pd and Pt nanostructures with a combination of large size and high density were then used to explore their applicability for the detection of 10−5 M Rhodamine 6G and 10−2 M paraoxon.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and absorption spectra of the pyridine molecule adsorbed on Au m Ag n (m + n = 6) bimetallic clusters are theoretically investigated by time-dependent density functional theory. The contributions of static chemical enhancement to the ground-state system are analyzed, and the static Raman intensity of Py-Au m Ag n complexes are enhanced by an order of 10. A method of visualization on charge transfer is used to distinguish the contributions of charge-transfer enhancement and electromagnetic enhancement. The intensity of surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS) spectroscopy of Py-Au m Ag n is strongly enhanced by an order of 103-105, compared to the static Raman intensity of pyridine. The influence of the static external electric field on SERS is investigated by calculating the optical properties of the Py-Au3Ag3 complex. The intensity of SERRS spectra and normal Raman spectra can be significantly enhanced by the positive electric fields, and the intensities of specific Raman vibrational modes could be selectively enhanced or weakened by tuning the direction and strength of the static electric field applied on Py-Au3Ag3.

Abstract
Core-shell nanoparticles are at the leading edge of the hot research topics and offer a wide range of applications in optics, biomedicine, environmental science, materials, catalysis, energy, and so forth, due to their excellent properties such as versatility, tunability, and stability. They have attracted enormous interest attributed to their dramatically tunable physicochemical features. Plasmonic core-shell nanomaterials are extensively used in surface-enhanced vibrational spectroscopies, in particular, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), due to the unique localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) property. This review provides a comprehensive overview of core-shell nanoparticles in the context of fundamental and application aspects of SERS and discusses numerous classes of core-shell nanoparticles with their unique strategies and functions. Further, herein we also introduce the concept of shell-isolated nanoparticle-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SHINERS) in detail because it overcomes the long-standing limitations of material and morphology generality encountered in traditional SERS. We then explain the SERS-enhancement mechanism with core-shell nanoparticles, as well as three generations of SERS hotspots for surface analysis of materials. To provide a clear view for readers, we summarize various approaches for the synthesis of core-shell nanoparticles and their applications in SERS, such as electrochemistry, bioanalysis, food safety, environmental safety, cultural heritage, materials, catalysis, and energy storage and conversion. Finally, we exemplify about the future developments in new core-shell nanomaterials with different functionalities for SERS and other surface-enhanced spectroscopies.

Abstract
Electrochemical Raman spectroscopy is a powerful molecular level diagnostic technique for in situ investigation of adsorption and reactions on various material surfaces. However, there is still a big room to improve the optical path to meet the increasing request of higher detection sensitivity and spatial resolution. Herein, we proposed a novel electrochemical Raman setup based on a water immersion objective. It dramatically reduces mismatch of the refractive index in the light path. Consequently, significant improvement in detection sensitivity and spatial resolution has been achieved from both Zemax simulation and the experimental results. Furthermore, the thickness of electrolyte layer could be expanded to 2 mm without any influence on the signal collection. Such a thick electrolyte layer allows a much normal electrochemical response during the spectroelectrochemical investigations of the methanol oxidation.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) and tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) were until recently limited in their applicability to the majority of heterogeneous catalytic reactions. Recent developments begin to resolve the conflicting experimental requirements for SERS and TERS on the one hand, and heterogeneous catalysis on the other hand. This article discusses the development and use of SERS and TERS to study heterogeneous catalytic reactions, and the exciting possibilities that may now be within reach thanks to the latest technical developments. This will be illustrated with showcase examples from photo- and electrocatalysis. GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT

Abstract
A combined experimental and theoretical study on the molecular structure and vibrational spectra of [Fe(NCS)](2+) complex in the aqueous solution at the pH∼2 ± 0.1 have been performed. Experimental Raman spectra of the iron(III) isothiocyanate with higher coordination number in the acidic aqueous solution have been analyzed. Molecular modeling of the iron(III) monoisothiocyanate complex was accomplished by the density functional theory (DFT) method using B3LYP and PBE1PBE functionals. Theoretical vibrational spectra of the iron(III) monoisothiocyanate were interpreted by means of the potential energy distributions (PEDs). The influence of different solvation models and position of SO4(2)(-) ligand vs. NCS(-) ligand upon its geometry and vibrational frequencies have been evaluated. The effect of H2O/D2O isotopic substitution on the experimental and calculated Raman spectra of iron(III) isothiocyanates has been examined. Procedures of Raman spectra subtraction have been applied for the extractions of weak and/or obscured Raman signals. As a result, the presence of bound SO4(2)(-) ion and water molecules in the first coordination sphere in the acidic aqueous iron(III) isothiocyanate solution was confirmed. The vibrational assignments for the investigated iron(III) isothiocyanates were proposed here for the first time.

Abstract
Tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) is a very powerful variant of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). In a sense, TERS overcomes most of the drawbacks of SERS but keeps its advantages, such as its high sensitivity. TERS offers the additional advantages of high spatial resolution, much beyond the Abbe limit, and the possibility to correlate TER and other scanning probe microscope images, i.e., to correlate topographic and chemical data. TERS finds application in a number of fields, such as surface science, material science, and biology. Single-molecule TERS has been observed even for TERS enhancements of "only" 10(6)-10(7). In this review, TERS enhancements are discussed in some detail, including a condensed overview of measured contrasts and estimated total enhancements. Finally, recent developments for TERS under ultrahigh vacuum conditions are presented, including TERS on a C(60) island with a diameter of a few tens of nanometers, deposited on a smooth Au(111) surface.

Abstract
A Pd nanoshell was epitaxially grown on a Au nanorod (NR) via simple seed-mediated growth. Compared with the cylindrical shape of the Au NR, the Au core/Pd shell (Au@Pd) nanorods change to a rectangular shape due to the disappearance of {110} facets. The Au NRs exhibit a strong longitudinal surface plasmon resonance (LSPR). As Pd is deposited, damping and broadening occur to the LSPR band. Interestingly, the LSPR band maximum first shows a small red-shift (ca. 40 nm) which then is followed by a blue-shift as the amount of Pd is increased. A thickness-dependent LSPR feature of the Pd shell is believed to contribute to the shift. At a thinner Pd thickness, the Au@Pd nanobars exhibit a well-defined LSPR band in the visible and near-infrared region, which demonstrates a higher dielectric sensitivity than that of the corresponding Au NRs. It thus opens up the potential of Pd nanostructures for SPR-based sensing. Investigations on the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) indicate that the SERS activities of the Au@Pd nanobars at thicknesses smaller than 2.5 nm mainly originate from the Au cores; thus, the SERS activities can be improved by tuning the aspect ratio of the Au core and/or the Pd shell thickness.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) was discovered three decades ago and has gone through a tortuous pathway to develop into a powerful diagnostic technique. Recently, the lack of substrate, surface and molecular generalities of SERS has been circumvented to a large extent by devising and utilizing various nanostructures by many groups including ours. This article aims to present our recent approaches of utilizing the borrowing SERS activity strategy mainly through constructing two types of nanostructures. The first nanostructure is chemically synthesized Au nanoparticles coated with ultra-thin shells (ca. one to ten atomic layers) of various transition metals, e.g., Pt, Pd, Ni and Co, respectively. Boosted by the long-range effect of the enhanced electromagnetic (EM) field generated by the highly SERS-active Au core, the originally low surface enhancement of the transition metal can be substantially improved giving total enhancement factors up to 10(4)-10(5). It allows us to obtain the Raman spectra of surface water, having small Raman cross-section, on several transition metals for the first time. To expand the surface generality of SERS, tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) has been employed. With TERS, a nanogap can be formed controllably between an atomically flat metal surface and the tip with an optimized shape, within which the enhanced EM field from the tip can be coupled (borrowed) effectively. Therefore, one can obtain surface Raman signals (TERS signals) from adsorbed species at Au(110), Au(111) and, more importantly, Pt(l10) surfaces. The enhancement factor achieved on these single crystal surfaces can be up to 106, especially with a very high spatial resolution down to about 14 nm. To fully accomplish the borrowing strategy from different nanostructures and to explain the experimental observations, a three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method was used to calculate and evaluate the local EM field on the core-shell nanoparticle surfaces and the TERS tips. Finally, prospects and further developments of this valuable strategy are briefly discussed with emphasis on the emerging experimental methodologies.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has developed into one of the most important tools in analytical and surface sciences since its discovery in the mid-1970s. Recent work on the SERS of transition metals concluded that transition metals, other than Cu, Ag, and Au, can also generate surface enhancement as high as 4 orders of magnitude. The present article gives an overview of recent progresses in the field of Raman spectroscopy on transition metals, including experimental, theory, and applications. Experimental considerations of how to optimize the experimental conditions and calculate the surface enhancement factor are discussed first, followed by a very brief introduction of preparation of SERS-active transition metal substrates, including massive transition metal surfaces, aluminum-supported transition metal electrodes, and pure transition metal nanoparticle assembled electrodes. The advantages of using SERS in investigating surface bonding and reaction are illustrated for the adsorption and reaction of benzene on Pt and Rh electrodes. The electromagnetic enhancement, mainly lightning-rod effect, plays an essential role in the SERS of transition metals, and that the charge-transfer effect is also operative in some specific metal-molecule systems. An outlook for the field of Raman spectroscopy of transition metals is given in the last section, including the preparation of well-ordered or well-defined nanostructures, and core-shell nanoparticles for investigating species with extremely weak SERS signals, as well as some new emerging techniques, including tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy and an in situ measuring technique.

Abstract
The aim of this work is to further improve the molecular generality and substrate generality of SERS (i.e., to fully optimize the SERS activity of transition-metal electrodes). We utilized a strategy of borrowing high SERS activity from the Au core based on Au-core Pt-shell (Au@Pt) nanoparticle film electrodes, which can be simply and routinely prepared. The shell thickness from about one to five monolayers of Pt atoms can be well controlled by adjusting the ratio of the number of Au seeds to Pt(IV) ions in the solution. The SERS experimental results of carbon monoxide adsorption indicate that the enhancement factor for the Au@Pt nanoparticle film electrodes is more than 2 orders of magnitude larger than that of electrochemically roughened Pt electrodes. The practical virtues of the present film electrodes for obtaining rich and high-quality vibrational information for diverse adsorbates on transition metals are pointed out and briefly illustrated with systems of CO, hydrogen, and benzene adsorbed on Pt. We believe that the electrochemical applications of SERS will be broadened with this strategy, in particular, for extracting detailed vibrational information for adsorbates at transition-metal electrode interfaces.

Abstract
In this paper, an approach for fabricating an active surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate is adopted. This approach is based on the assembling of silver nanoparticles film on gold substrate. Rhodamine 6G (R6G) and p-aminothiophenol (p-ATP) were used as probe molecules for SERS experiments, showing that this new active substrate has sensitivity to SERS response. Tapping-mode atomic force microscopy (AFM) was also used to investigate the surface morphology following the fabricating process of the active SERS substrate, which showed that large quantities of silver nanoparticles were uniformly coated on the substrate.

Abstract
This discussion focuses on our recent approaches at aiming to optimize surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) activity for transition metals (group VIII B elements), by intentionally fabricating desired surface nanostructures or synthesizing nanoparticles. The SERS activity of transition metals critically depends on the surface morphology of electrodes and on size, shape and aggregation form of nanoparticles. A correct surface roughening procedure for transition-metal electrodes is indispensable for fabricating cauliflower-like nanostructures that show a higher SERS activity. Two more methods have been explored to synthesize nanoparticles, i.e., cubic nanoparticles and gold-core palladium-shell nanostructures, respectively. Their SERS activities are considerably higher than those of normal spherical mono-metallic nanoparticles. To explain these observations, a preliminary theoretical calculation, using the three-dimensional finite difference time domain (3D-FDTD) method, was performed to evaluate the local electromagnetic field on transition metal surfaces. The result is in good agreement with the experimental data.

Abstract
A surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopic (SERS) study of pyrazine adsorbed on roughened Rh electrodes was performed. Potential and concentration effects on the adsorption behavior of pyrazine were investigated. The SER spectra display four pairs of overlapping bands with the relative intensity of each pair being highly potential dependent, which has not been observed on other metals. The orientation change of the adsorbed pyrazine from the end-on to N/pi bonded edge-on configuration is proposed to account for this potential-dependent relative intensity change. This hypothesis is further supported by the SERS results obtained at different pyrazine concentrations. In conjunction with the orientation effect, the interaction of Rh with hydrogen and oxygen generated at different potentials has a great influence on the adsorption configuration of pyrazine.

Abstract
Au colloids were used to fabricate nanoscale-tunable Au nanofilms on silicon for surface-enhanced IR absorption bases in both ambient and electrochemical environments. This wet process incorporates the self-assembly of colloidal Au monolayer using 3-aminopropyl trimethoxysilane as the organic coupler with subsequent chemical plating in an Au(III)/hydroxylamine solution. FTIR spectroscopy in transmission mode of the probe species SCN- was used to evaluate the apparent surface enhancement in IR absorption of 2D Au colloid arrays and chemically plated Au particles. The nanostructure of Au films was examined by atomic force microscopy. The IR and AFM results show that the apparent surface enhancement factor (1-2 orders of magnitude) increases with increasing sizes and/or contact, and the severe aggregation of Au nanoparticles may cause the bipolar band shape. Cyclic voltammetry on the Au nanofilm obtained by the above nucleation and growth strategy exhibits a feasible electrochemical stability and behavior. In situ ATR-FTIR measurement of p-nitrobenzoic acid adsorption demonstrates that the as-grown Au film yields rather promising surface enhancement as well.

Abstract
Core-shell Au-Pt nanoparticles were synthesized by using a seed growth method and characterized by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and UV-vis spectroscopy. Au(core)-Pt(shell)/GC electrodes were prepared by drop-coating the nanoparticles on clean glassy carbon (GC) surfaces, and their electrochemical behavior in 0.5 M H2SO4 revealed that coating of the Au core by the Pt shell is complete. The electrooxidation of carbon monoxide and methanol on the Au(core)-Pt(shell)/GC was also examined, and the results are similar to those obtained on a bulk Pt electrode. High quality surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectra of both adsorbed CO and thiocyanate were observed on the Au(core)-Pt(shell)/GC electrodes. The potential-dependent SERS features resemble those obtained on electrochemically roughened bulk Pt or Pt thin films deposited on roughened Au electrodes. For thiocyanate, the C-N stretching frequency increases with the applied potential, yielding two distinctly different dnu(CN)/dE. From -0.8 to -0.2 V, the dnu(CN)/dE is ca. 50 cm(-1)/V, whereas it is 90 cm(-1)/V above 0 V. The bandwidth along with the band intensity increases sharply above 0 V. At the low-frequency region, Pt-NCS stretching mode at 350 cm(-1) was observed at the potentials from -0.8 to 0 V, whereas the Pt-SCN mode at 280 cm(-1) was largely absent until around 0 V and became dominant at more positive potentials. These potential-dependent spectral transitions were attributed to the adsorption orientation switch from N-bound dominant at the negative potential region to S-bound at more positive potentials. The origin of the SERS activity of the particles is briefly discussed. The study demonstrates a new method of obtaining high quality SERS on Pt-group transition metals, with the possibility of tuning SERS activity by varying the core size and the shell thickness.

Abstract
In our previous paper, a method for preparing enormous surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) active substrates through the aggregation of silver particles trapped at an air-water interface was reported. Here, further efforts were devoted to investigate the origin of assembling silver particle films by adsorbing nanoparticles from bulk colloids to the air-water interface. It was revealed that it is thermodynamically favorable for a colloidal particle in bulk colloids to adsorb to the air-water interface; however, a finite sorption barrier between it and the nearby particles usually restrains the adsorption process. When an electrolyte such as KCl, which is commonly used as an activating agent for additional SERS enhancement, was added into silver colloids, it largely reduced the sorption barrier. Thus, silver nanoparticles can break through the sorption barrier, pop up, and be trapped at the air-water interface. The trapped silver particles are more inclined to aggregate at the interface than those in bulk colloids due to the increase of van der Waals forces and the reduction of electrostatic forces. The morphology of the as-prepared silver particle films was characterized by scanning electron microscope, and their SERS activity was tested using NaSCN as a probe molecule. The surface enhancement of the silver particle films is about 1-2 orders of magnitude higher compared with that of silver colloids, because most of the silver particles in the films are in the aggregation form that provides enormous SERS enhancement. Furthermore, the stability of such type of films is much better that of colloid solutions.

Abstract
Over the past three decades, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has gone through a tortuous pathway to develop into a powerful surface diagnostic technique for in situ investigation of surface adsorption and reactions on electrodes. This review presents the recent progress achieved mainly in our laboratory on the improvement of detection sensitivities as well as spectral, temporal, and spatial resolutions. Various surface roughening procedures for electrodes of different metals coupled with maximum use of a high-sensitivity confocal Raman microscope enable us to obtain good-quality SER spectra on the electrode surfaces made from net Pt, Ni, Co, Fe, Pd, Rh, Ru, and their alloys that were traditionally considered to be non-SERS active. A novel technique called potential-averaged SERS (PASERS) has been developed for the quantitative study of electrochemical sorption. Applications are exemplified on extensively studied areas such as coadsorption, electrocatalysis, corrosion, and fuel cells, and several advantages of in situ electrochemical SERS are demonstrated. Finally, further developments in this field are briefly discussed with emphasis on the emerging methodology.

Abstract
In this paper, we propose two new approaches for preparing active substrates for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). In the first approach (method 1), one transfers AgI nanoparticles capped by negatively charged mercaptoacetic acid from a AgI colloid solution onto a quartz slide and then deoxidizes AgI to Ag nanoparticles on the substrate. The second approach (method 2) deoxidizes AgI to Ag nanoparticles in a colloid solution and then transfers the Ag nanoparticles capped by negatively charged mercaptoacetic acid onto a quartz slide. By transfer of the AgI/Ag nanoparticles from the colloid solutions to the solid substrates, the problem of instability of the colloid solutions can largely be overcome. The films thus prepared by both approaches retain the merits of metal colloid solutions while they discharge their shortcomings. Accordingly, the obtained Ag particle films are very suitable as SERS active substrates. SERS active substrates with different coverages can be formed in a layer-by-layer electrostatic assembly by exposing positively charged surfaces to the colloid solutions containing oppositely charged AgI/Ag nanoparticles. The SERS active substrates fabricated by the two novel methods have been characterized by means of atomic force microscopy (AFM) and ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy. The results of AFM and UV-vis spectroscopy show that the Ag nanoparticles grow with the increase in the number of coverage and that most of them remain isolated even at high coverages. Consequently, the surface optical properties are dominated by the absorption due to the isolated Ag nanoparticles. The relationship between SERS intensity and surface morphology of the new active substrates has been investigated for Rhodamine 6G (R6G) adsorbed on them. It has been found that the SERS enhancement depends on the size and aggregation of the Ag particles on the substrates. Especially, we can obtain a stronger SERS signal from the substrate prepared by method 1, implying that for the metal nanoparticles capped with stabilizer molecules such as mercaptoacetic acid, the in situ deoxidization in the film is of great use in preparing SERS active substrates. Furthermore, we have found that the addition of Cl- into the AgI colloid solution changes the surface morphology of the SERS active substrates and favors stronger SERS enhancement.
