Angel, S M; Myrick, M L

The surface-enhanced Raman phenomenon was discovered in 1974 and analytical applications of it are only now being developed. Near-infrared surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy was first reported in 1988, and the characteristics of the technique are still being determined. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the reader to the technique and to describe some of its characteristics. In addition, some of the applications being explored by the authors, including remote monitoring of groundwater contaminants and qualitative assays for drugs, are presented. 61 refs., 12 figs.
