Journal Article
Marshall, A. R. L., Roberts, M., Gierschner, J., Bouillard, J. S. G., & Adawi, A. M. (2019). Probing the molecular orientation of a single conjugated polymer via nano-gap SERS. ACS Applied Polymer Materials, 1(5), 1175-1180. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsapm.9b00180

Determining the molecular orientation at the single molecule level is of key importance for a wide range of applications ranging from molecular electronic devices to biomedical applications. In this work surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) was u... Read More about Probing the molecular orientation of a single conjugated polymer via nano-gap SERS.

Crossover between liquid-like and gas-like behaviour in CH₄ at 400 K (2017)
Journal Article
Smith, D., Hakeem, M. A., Parisiades, P., Maynard-Casely, H. E., Foster, D., Eden, D., …Proctor, J. E. (2017). Crossover between liquid-like and gas-like behaviour in CH₄ at 400 K. Physical Review E, 96(5), Article 052113. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevE.96.052113

We report experimental evidence for a crossover between a liquid-like state and a gas-like state in fluid methane (CH₄). This crossover is observed in all of our experiments, up to 397 K temperature; 2.1 times the critical temperature of methane. The...

Determining molecular orientation via single molecule SERS in a plasmonic nano-gap (2017)
Journal Article
Marshall, A. R. L., Stokes, J., Viscomi, F. N., Proctor, J. E., Gierschner, J., Bouillard, J. G., & Adawi, A. M. (2017). Determining molecular orientation via single molecule SERS in a plasmonic nano-gap. Nanoscale, 9(44), 17415-17421. https://doi.org/10.1039/C7NR05107G

In this work, plasmonic nano-gaps consisting of a silver nanoparticle coupled to an extended silver film have been fully optimized for single molecule Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) spectroscopy. The SERS signal was found to be strongly dep... Read More about Determining molecular orientation via single molecule SERS in a plasmonic nano-gap.
