Kearns, H. published the artcile1064 nm SERS of NIR active hollow gold nanotags, Name: 4-(1H-Pyrazol-4-yl)pyridine, the publication is Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (2015), 17(3), 1980-1986, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.
Surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) tags are in situ probes that can provide sensitive and selective probes for optical anal. in biol. materials. Engineering tags for use in the near IR (NIR) region is of particular interest since there is an uncongested spectral window for optical anal. due to the low background absorption and scattering from many mols. An improved synthesis has resulted in the formation of hollow gold nanoshells (HGNs) with a localised surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) between 800 and 900 nm which provide effective SERS when excited at 1064 nm. Seven Raman reporters containing aromatic amine or thiol attachment groups were investigated. All were effective but 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene (BPE) and 4,4-azopyridine (AZPY) provided the largest enhancement. At approx. monolayer coverage, these two reporters appear to pack with the main axis of the mol. perpendicular or nearly perpendicular to the surface giving strong SERS and thus providing effective 1064 nm gold SERS nanotags.
