Abstract
Surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS) is considerably more efficient than Raman spectroscopy, thereby enabling the detection of single molecules. Strong and short-lived SERRS emissions (<100 ms) from single, partially silver-coated, dye-adsorbed microparticles have been detected within optical tweezers (see picture). Full spectra, recorded from single particles, clearly show that the emission is due to SERRS.
