SHINERS in cultural heritage: Can SHINERS spectra always be compared with normal Raman spectra? A study of alizarin and its adsorption in the silicon dioxide shell

open access: yesJournal of Raman Spectroscopy, Volume 52, Issue 8, Page 1406-1417, August 2021., 2021
The resulting SHINERS spectra are comparable with normal Raman spectrum of alizarin adsorbed in silica, not that of isolated alizarin. Both Ag@SiO2 and Au@SiO2 were considered, and their spectra are dependent on the interaction of alizarin with silica, rather than the specific metal core within.
