Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) from silver nanosculptured thin films (STF) was studied in detail for biosensing. The influences of the nanostructures’ sizes, topology, the substrate features, and the preparation conditions on the enhancement were examined. Enhancement factors on the order...
