Abstract
This paper describes the use of a simple, compact, portable spectromet er designed for field measurement using surface-enhanced Raman scatter ing (SERS) analysis. The instrument yields excellent sensitivity for a wide variety of chemical species, with detection limits in the ppm-pp b range. The SERS analysis of binary and ternary mixtures illustrates the usefulness of the instrument.
