ULTRA SENSITIVE, UNIFORM, FLEXIBLE, & CUSTOMIZABLE SERS SUBSTRATES

About our SERS susbtrates

At Nefer Ka, we employ a patent-pending, scalable technology, to produce our gold-based SERS substrates. Silver-based substrates are available upon request.

For large orders, please contact us at "info@neferkallc.com"

 

The measurements shown below highlight the advantages of using Nefer Ka's SERS substrates.

Ultra-low background signal

 Raman signal taken on and off a Rhodamine 6G analyte show the inherent low background signal using Nefer Ka's SERS substrates.

Spatially uniform signal

Raman measurements at 3 different spots along the coffee ring of Rhodamine 6G display a uniform signal.
