Observation of "intramolecular" analog of surface-enhanced Raman scattering
Baranov A. V. , Belyaevskaya N. M., Boiko I.I.
In a study of resonant Raman scattering by a molecule, which has two isolated chromophores, it has been observed that the scattering by the vibrations of one chromophore is intensified upon the excitation of Raman scattering in the absorption band of the other. The effect is interpreted in terms of an electromagnetic mechanism for surface-enhanced Raman scattering.
