Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study reports the detection and the identification of a single base from a single DNA oligomer by surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) using a gold nanoparticle dimer. The gold nanoparticle dimer structure was fabricated by a self-assembling process using a nanotrench. A Raman spectrum derived from an 8-chain DNA oligomer with one adenine and seven cytosines was obtained. It was confirmed that a single DNA oligomer was detected from a single gold nanoparticle dimer. It indicates that a single adenine was detected. In addition, only the adenine peak without the cytosine peak was observed, indicating the possibility of spatial resolution with a single DNA base.
