Title: Galvanic Deposition of Nanostructured Noble-Metal Films on Silicon

It is shown that the morphology of Ag, which is different from that of Pt and Au, can be influenced markedly by the deposition conditions. Distinctive surface-enhanced Raman-scattering features are observed on these Ag films.Read More
