Abstract

In this study, the enhancement of Raman scattering spectra (RS) of individual dielectric (polystyrene) microspheres, coated with a thin (10 nm) metallic shell, deposited on silver-coated cover glasses, was investigated. It was found that laser irradiation with a power of 10–20 μW induces thermal activation, which leads to a sharp increase in the intensity of RS spectra, as well as their modification. This effect is irreversible, indicating structural changes in the metallic shell. After thermal activation, it becomes possible to record spectra at significantly lower excitation powers, which substantially enhances the sensitivity of the method.
