Surface‐enhanced raman scattering (SERS) effect is sensitive enough for single‐molecule biochemical detection, but it is extremely difficult to obtain a large number of SERS hotspots for sensitive and reproducible detection. It is even more challenging to assemble the hot‐spots at designated positions for location predictable sensing. On page 5457 , D. L. Fan and co‐workers report an original strategy for the synthesis, manipulation, and assembling of plasmonic nanocapsule SERS sensors for high‐sensitivity biochemical detection at predictable locations.
