Surface-Enhanced Raman-Spectroscopy of Monolayer C-60 Langmuir-Blodgett-Films
The Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films of C-60 mixed with stearic acid (SA) on a water subphase are deposited on optical glass substrates and their UV-Vis absorption spectra are measured. The surface-enhanced Raman spectra (SERS) of C-60 LB films has been observed for the first time. Silver-island film is used to obtain SERS of a well-ordered single-monolayer C-60 LB film. The SERS contain all fundamental Raman modes, as well as several new weak bands attributed to higher-order Raman modes as determined from factor group analysis. The enhancement of higher-order Raman scattering is probably related to C,, molecular structure. The present results illustrate the potential of SRES in detecting monolayer C-60 LB films and in obtaining complete C-60 Raman spectra.
