Theory of Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering in Semiconductors
Abstract
We develop an analytical expression for the lowest order nonzero contribution to the surface-enhanced Raman spectrum from a system composed of a molecule adsorbed on a semiconductor nanoparticle. We consider a combined molecule-semiconductor system and include Herzberg–Teller vibronic coupling of the zero-order Born–Oppenheimer states. This follows a previous derivation for metallic SERS, but instead of a Fermi level, the semiconductor system involves a band gap and we find that the SERS enhancement is maximized at either the conduction or valence band edge. The resulting expression may be regarded as an extension of the Albrecht A-, B-, and C-terms and show that the SERS enhancement is caused by several resonances in the combined system, namely, surface plasmon, exciton, charge-transfer, and molecular resonances. These resonances are coupled by terms in the numerator, which provide strict selection rules that enable us to test the theory and predict the relative intensities of the Raman lines. Furthermore, by considering interactions of the various contributions to the SERS enhancement, we are able to develop ways to optimize the enhancement factor by tailoring the semiconductor nanostructure thereby adjusting the location of the various contributing resonances.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
