BRC organized a seminar presented by Prof. Yiping Zhao from China. He talked about the surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and how it works as a high sensitive detection technique for chemical and biological sensing and medical diagnostics. Furthermore, in his project he have conducted a comprehensive investigation on the physical origin of such a high enhancement factor, optimized the structures, designed different detection configurations, and developed a large scale production system. With the optimized AgNR SERS substrates, it also show that SERS is able to detect trace amount of virus, bacteria, microRNAs, or other chemical and biological molecules for applications in medical diagnostics, food safety, and environmental pollutions.
