A plasmon is a collective oscillation of the conduction electrons
The free electron optical response uses the Drude-Lorentz-Sommerfeld model. The influence of external forces is considered for one electron alone and thenThe influence of external forces is considered for one electron alone and then the response is multiplied by the number of electrons. All electrons act in phase in this model.

Surface Plasmon Resonance on Gold
The intensity of the reflected light is reduced at a specific incident l d i h di f langle producing a sharp dip-a surface plasmon resonance

Are gold and silversilver the only SPR substrates?g y
Fixed charge carrier density: ~1023 electrons/cm3
Limited electrochemical range: Gold is oxidized above 0.8 V
Thiol surface chemistry
Conducting metal oxides offer possibilities not present on gold–No quenching of fluorescence–Stable electrochemistry over a wide range–Processible surfaceProcessible surface–Many surface chemistries possible
There are hundreds of mixed metal oxide substrates possible.

in 1974 for pyridine on rough silver electrode.
• Electromagnetic and chemical mechanisms. The chemicalmechanism could be resonant Raman.
• Enhancement factors have increased from 106 to 1015

Inelastic light scattering produces a frequency shift. There is exchange of energy between the vibrations of the molecule and the incident photonof the molecule and the incident photon.

Two questions about g4 enhancement:
1 Is this correct?1. Is this correct?- Experimental SERS increases as |E|2, not |E|4
- Conservation of energy must be satisfied
2. How big is g?
- g is can be calculated directly using Drude model
- There must be a bandwidth to the SERS effect- There must be a bandwidth to the SERS effect

Conclusion• Surface plasmon resonance on free electron conductors is possibleconductors is possible
• Hybrid plasmons that cut across different conducting materials are possible
• Agreement of the free electron theory is very good• Application of these insights to the local field factor for Surface Enhanced Raman spectroscopy leads to a SERS bandwidth
• The SERS bandwidth limits the SERS effect to realistic• The SERS bandwidth limits the SERS effect to realistic values, orders of magnitude less than 1015
