  • Abstract
    Using surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy on gold-nanoparticle-decorated silicon nitride chips, we monitor the release of dextran-rhodamin molecules from capsules inside living cells. This demonstrates the feasibility of using photonic chips for intracellular sensing at visible wavelengths.
