Synonyms: Fluorescence enhancing gold substrates; Plasmonic gold slides; Raman enhancing substrates; pGOLD(TM) slide
Application: Our gold coated slides contain ~100 nm thick film of nanostructured plasmonic gold particles and find applications as fluorescence enhancing substrates for many fluorophores emitting in the 600-1700 nm range, including Cy5, Alexa Fluor(R) 647, IRDye(R) 800 and others. These gold substrates can also be used to enhance Raman scattering signals. Using these slides an enhancement in Raman signal up to 100-fold can be achieved at ~800 nm emission channel. A 5-10 fold increase in scattering can be obtained in the visible light range. These slides are also capable of enhancing surface Raman scattering signals up to 107 fold.
