ABSTRACT

—— Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) spectroscopy has emerged as a powerful analytical technique with applications spanning various fields including chemistry, biology, and materials science. This paper provides a comprehensive review of recent advances in SERS spectroscopy, focusing on its principles, instrumentation, and applications. We discuss the underlying mechanisms of SERS enhancement, explore the latest developments in SERS substrates and nanostructures, and highlight novel applications in sensing, imaging, and characterization. Additionally, we discuss challenges and future prospects in the field, emphasizing the importance of standardization and reproducibility for advancing SERS as a reliable analytical tool. Keywords — Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering, SERS, spectroscopy, enhancement mechanisms, nanostructures, sensing, imaging, characterization, standardization, reproducibility.
