Enhanced raman scattering by pyridine physisorbed on a clean silver surface in ultra-high vacuum

Anomalously intense Raman signals were observed from thin films of pyridine physisorbed on an argon-ion cleaned silver surface maintained near 77 K in ultra-high vacuum. Experiments employing deuterium-enriched pyridine, C 5D 5N, demonstrate that it is the species immediately adjacent to the metal s...

Description
Summary:Anomalously intense Raman signals were observed from thin films of pyridine physisorbed on an argon-ion cleaned silver surface maintained near 77 K in ultra-high vacuum. Experiments employing deuterium-enriched pyridine, C 5D 5N, demonstrate that it is the species immediately adjacent to the metal surface whose Raman spectrum is appreciably enhanced.
