Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy: Using Nanoparticles to Detect Trace Amounts of Colorants in Works of Art

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Book cover Nanoscience and Cultural Heritage

Abstract

In recent years, powerful physical processes occurring in the vicinity of nanoscale metal surfaces have been exploited in the art world for the detection of trace amounts of colorants with surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). With this technique, naturally occurring and man-made organic molecules used as dyes and pigments in objects from antiquity to the present day are being detected with high molecular specificity and unprecedented sensitivity. This chapter reviews the broad spectrum of SERS analytical methodologies and instrumental improvements that have been developed over the years in the field of cultural heritage science, and discusses significant case studies within different types of works of art and archaeological artifacts.
