Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and UV-Vis-NIR spectroscopy were used for characterization of the morphology and optical properties of fabricated gold nanolayers. The SERS properties of Au films were tested using <em>p</em>-mercaptoaniline (pMA). A maximum estimated SERS enhancement factor greater than 10<sup>6</sup> can be achieved for this compound. SERS enhancement factors are shown to be dependent on the Au nanolayers’ morphology.  <br /> <br /> Full Text: <a class="file" href="/PLP/index.php/letters/article/view/5-18/275" target="_parent">PDF</a> <br /> <br /> <strong>References</strong> <ol> <li>B.
