- This paper paved the way for the demonstration of novel Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) sensing platforms based on laser-engineered nanocomposite systems. SERS is an extremely powerful optical detection technique for the development of sensitive and quantitative analytical methods suitable for real-time monitoring and detection. These investigations allowed to secure a New Investigator research grant [EPSRC - EP/P008135/1 and EP/P008135/2 (Jan.17-Sep.19) with funded values of £101,078 and £25,800, respectively], promising to dramatically improve the fabrication process of high-performance SERS-active substrates, hence addressing the current materials limitations such as cost, stability and reproducibility, critical to their application for the quantitative analysis.
