Abstract

Ensemble measurement of the adsorbed molecules and each metal structure showed fluctuation in the depolarisation SERS behaviour and the intensity ratio in the same spectrum. For further investigation of this depolarisation behaviour to know the details on the photoexcitation process, it is important to fabricate a single molecular junction combined with spectroscopy of the single molecule. In this chapter, simultaneous measurement of conductance and polarised SERS in relation to the molecular bridged metal nanojunction is performed. The conductance measurement proves the number of molecules, while polarised Raman measurement proves the orientation and CT character.
