More than four decades have passed since surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) was discovered. In today's world SERS has been established as a plasmon-based spectroscopy with ultra-high sensitivity and versatility at the forefront of the developments in plasmonics. SERS has been developing with the advances in nanoscience and nanotechnology. The "SERS world" has grown up markedly for the last 20 years or so, and recently the wider concept of, plasmon-enhanced spectroscopy was born. Plasmon-enhanced spectroscopy contains not only SERS but also tip-enhanced Raman scattering (TERS), surface-enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA), surface-enhanced fluorescence (SEF), and more. Through these novel spectroscopies various amazing properties of plasmons have become known, providing new exciting research fields. One of the main purposes of the book is to convey the enthusiastic discussion on plasmon-enhanced spectroscopy at the symposium to the scientific community.
This book reports leading-edge advances in the theory of plasmonic enhancement and application of plasmon-enhanced spectroscopy to biology, chemistry, physics, materials science, and medicine. Many books have been published about SERS, but this may be the first time that a book on a wide area of plasmon-enhanced spectroscopy has ever been published. The book consists of two volumes; the second volume discusses TERS, SEIRA, and other topics related to plasmon-enhanced spectroscopy.

Yukihiro Ozaki obtained his Ph.D. (1978) in chemistry from Osaka University. He is currently a Professor in the Department of Chemistry at Kwansei Gakuin University in Sanda, Japan. He has been active in the research of a variety of molecular spectroscopy, covering IR, Raman, NIR, and far-ultraviolet (FUV) spectroscopy. Prof. Ozaki has received many awards including the 1998 Tomas Hirschfeld Award, the 2002 Spectroscopical Society of Japan Award, the 2005 Science and Technology Award of Japanese Government (Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology), the Gerald Birth Award, and the Bomen-Michelson Award. He is also a fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry, the Chemical Society of Japan, and the Society for Applied Spectroscopy.
George C. Schatz is Charles E. and Emma H. Morrison Professor of Chemistry and of Chemical and Biological Engineering at Northwestern University. He received his undergraduate degree in chemistry at Clarkson University and a Ph.D at Caltech. He was a postdoc at MIT and has been at Northwestern since 1976. Schatz has published three books and more than 800 papers. Schatz is a member of the National Academy of Sciences, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the International Academy of Quantum Molecular Sciences, and he has been Editor-in-Chief of The Journal of Physical Chemistry since 2005. Recent awards include the Debye and Langmuir Awards of the ACS, the S F Boys-A Rahman Award of the Royal Society of Chemistry, and the Hirschfelder Award of the University of Wisconsin. He is a Fellow of the APS, RSC, ACS, and the AAAS.
