Composite blends of gold nanorods and poly(t-butylacrylate) beads as new substrates for SERS

Polymer based composites containing metal nanoparticles are shown to provide new substrates for SERS detection and simultaneously enable the development of new tools for molecular sensing. A very important aspect on the use of hybrid materials relates to the observation of synergistic effects that r...
