We are excited to share our latest publication (open-access) in The Journal of Physical Chemistry C , titled “ Understanding SERS Spectral Shape Variability through Substrate Optics, Molecular Orientation, and Unsupervised Clustering .”  The paper presents a combined experimental and chemometric study that explains why SERS spectra often change in shape, not just in intensity, even when the same molecule is measured on the same general type of substrate. What We Did Using 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)...

We are excited to announce a new Special Issue in the journal Nanomaterials  dedicated to the latest breakthroughs in Glancing Angle Deposition (GLAD)  and related nanostructured materials. 📢 As Guest Editor, I warmly invite researchers, collaborators, and the broader nanoscience community to contribute their latest work to this timely and impactful collection. 🌟 Why This Special Issue? Glancing Angle Deposition has emerged as a powerful and versatile nanofabrication technique, enabling:...

We are pleased to announce the first publication describing the SpectraGuru platform , marking an important milestone in the development of an open and community-driven infrastructure for Raman and Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) research. The work, titled “ SpectraGuru: A Community-Guided Path Toward Scalable Raman and SERS Analysis ,”  was published as a conference proceeding  in Biomedical Vibrational Spectroscopy 2026: Advances in Research and Industry  (SPIE Proceedings). The...
