Abstract
We report the direct laser writing (DLW) of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) structures on the inner wall of a hollow fiber. Colloidal gold-silver alloy nanoparticles (Au-Ag ANPs) are firstly coated onto the inner wall of a hollow fiber. A green laser beam is focused through the outer surface of the hollow fiber to interact with colloidal Au-Ag ANPs so that they become melted and aggregated on the surface of the inner wall with strong adhesion. Such randomly distributed plasmonic nanostructures with high density and small gaps favor the SERS detection of low-concentration molecules in liquids flowing through the hollow fiber. Such a SERS device also supplies a three-dimensional microcavity for the interaction between excitation laser and the target molecules. The DLW system consists mainly of the flexible connection between the motor shaft and the hollow fiber, the program-controlled translation of the hollow fiber along its symmetric axis and rotation about the axis, as well as the mechanical design and the computer control system. This DLW technique enables high production, high stability, high reproducibility, high precision, and a high-flexibility fabrication of the hollow fiber SERS device. The resultant microcavity SERS scheme enables the high-sensitivity detection of R6G molecules in ethanol with a concentration of 10-7 mol/L.

Abstract
The paper outlines the optimization of plasmonic nanostructures in order to improve their sensing properties such as their sensitivity and their ease of manipulation. The key point in this study is the optimization of the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) properties essential to the sensor characteristics, and more especially for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). Two aspects were considered in order to optimize the sensing performance: apolar plasmonic nanostructures for non polarization dependent detection and improvements of SERS sensitivity by using a molecular adhesion layer between gold nanostructures and glass. Both issues could be generalized to all plasmon-resonance-based sensing applications.

Abstract
Worldwide, oral cancer is the sixth most common cancer for both sexes. In Singapore, the 5-year survival rate of oral cancer is about 50%. The high mortality rate has been attributed to the difficulties in detecting the disease in an early treatable stage. Here, we present two application examples of gold nanoparticles in the early detection of oral cancer. In the first, gold nanoparticles were used as a reflective contrast agent for performing molecular imaging under confocal reflectance microscopy for the early diagnosis of epithelial carcinoma. While in the second, closely-packed gold nanoparticle, films were used as a bio-sensing surface for the chemical analysis of saliva via Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering. Preliminary results will be discussed.

Abstract
Through a simple room-temperature photoreduction process, this letter conformally replicates 3D submicrometer structures of wing scales from two butterfly species into Ag to generate practical surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates. The Ag replicas of butterfly scales with higher structural periodicity are able to detect rhodamine 6G at a low concentration down to 10(-9) M, which is three orders of magnitude lower than the detectable concentration limit of using quasi-periodic Ag butterfly structures. This result presents a way to select suitable scale morphologies from 174,500 species of Lepidopterans to replicate, as consumable SERS substrates with low cost and high reproducibility.

Abstract
We present a theoretical study of the electromagnetic contribution to surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) from a Langmuir-Blodgett film close to a metal surface. This macroscopic dipolar model fully accounts for the Raman-shifted emission so that meaningful SERS (electromagnetic) enhancement factors that do not depend only on the local electromagnetic field enhancement at the pump frequency are defined. For a plane metal surface, analytical SERS enhancement factors that are consistent for all pump beam polarization and molecular orientation are obtained. In order to investigate SERS on complex nanostructured metal surfaces, we introduce this model into the formally exact, Green's theorem surface integral equation formulation of the scattered electromagnetic field. This formulation is thus employed to calculate numerically the near-field and far-field emissions at the Raman-shifted frequency for very rough, random nanostructured surfaces, with emphasis on the impact of collective processes for varying pump frequency and Raman shift. Our results reveal that the widely used |E|4 approximation tends to overestimate average SERS enhancement factors.
