The report presents the development and optimization of a new class of Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) based optical fiber sensing platform known as metal-film over nanospheres (MFON) SERS active fiber. It involved deposition of polystyrene (PS) nanospheres, followed by silver (Ag) film coa...
