Raman scattering spectroelectrochemical investigations can be carried out for polymers deposited at practically any electrode used in electrochemical investigations (platinum, ITO, glassy carbon and others). In addition, successful application of SERS (surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy) for polypyrrole [124] and polythiophene [117] allows for Raman spectroscopic studies of extremely thin layers of conjugated polymers. Raman spectra of conjugated polymers are sometimes obscured by strong fluorescence. This problem can be effectively resolved by the... 

On Ag sols, molecules lie mainly fiat on the surface, as determined from SERS (surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy) measurements. However, the molecules are twisted and there is evidence for a small inclination against the surface. The twisting decreases and the inclination increases with increasing chain length [10-12]. The observed twisting of the molecules is in line with crystal powder X-ray diffraction data (see, e.g., [13] and references therein) which show a small twisting angle (3 -12 ) between the monomeric units in the solid state of 3T [14] and 4T [15,16]. 2T... 

However, hybrid bilayers are not suitable for protein incorporation because water is needed at the inner part of the bilayer to avoid protein denaturalization. In order to avoid this problem, Au surfaces were functionalized with a short hydroxylated dithiol (dithiothreitol, DTT) which adopts a lying down configuration with the OH groups exposed to the environment. Vesicle fusion on these DTT surfaces allows phospholipid bilayer formation with a water layer between the DTT SAM and the inner phospholipid monolayer. The phospholipid bilayer exhibits good fluidity as has been shown by in situ AFM (atomic force microscopy) imaging. These bilayers have been formed on both planar and nanostructured [SERS (surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy) active] gold surfaces. ...
