Structure Enhancement Factor Relationships in Single Gold Nanoantennas by Surface-Enhanced Raman Excitation Spectroscopy In the parlance of Nanoplasmonics, a crack can be considered a nanoantenna. A optimally configured nanoantenna can amplify incoming EMF in the infrared range by a factor of 500,000,000. I am showing you the path. What will you do with it?
