Abstract
The same substrates used to produce surface enhanced Raman scattering can also induce large changes in the fluorescence of nearby molecules. Unlike Raman scattering the rate of emission and the intensity are considered separately. The increase in emission rate has been shown to exceed 103 on silver island films (1,2) with a simultaneous enhancement of intensity. Such a large change in emission rate with no loss of intensity provides an avenue for exploitation in emission spectroscopy.
