SERS-active nylon fiber evidence swabs for forensic applications |
2016 |
1993 |
In the field of forensic science, discovered materials that could potentially be used as evidence are screened using presumptive and confirmatory tests before the samples are subjected to DNA analysis. Both of these tests have drawbacks associated wi... |

Currently, in the forensic field there is a need for development to improve biological evidence screening. Although, biological evidence screening is not required for DNA analysis it can give insight for crime scene reconstruction therefore providing... |
Evaluating self-segregation of seminal fluid components via surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy |
2020 |
517 |
In recent years, Raman spectroscopy has proven to be a promising confirmatory test for seminal fluid found in sexual assault kits. Perhaps the main disadvantage to using Raman spectroscopy in this context is low signal, which results from both the lo... |
Plasmonic fluorescence enhancement of poly(3-hexylthiophene) for organic solar cell applications |
2012 |
3879 |
Solar cells are becoming an attractive alternative energy source considering the
need to lessen dependence on nonrenewable energy sources such as fossil fuels. Organic
photovoltaics (PVs) are inexpensive to produce, flexible, and eliminate many pot... |
Synthesis and characterization of silica/silver multilayer nanoparticles and their application in surface enhanced spectroscopy |
2015 |
831 |
This research is focused on determining the most effective silver shell growth method formultilayered metallic nanoparticles, and determining the plausibility of using embedded[Ru(bpy)3]2+ as an internal standard for surface enhanced Raman spectrosco... |
