Shell‐isolated plasmonic superstructures , abbreviated as SHIPS, have been developed to detect the presence of picomoles of Rhodamine 6G in an aqueous solution using shell‐isolated nanoparticle‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy. These structures open up the possibility of using Raman spectroscopy to investigate various liquid‐phase systems, and more specifically, chemical reactions related to heterogeneous catalysis. More information can be found in the Full Paper by B. M. Weckhuysen, et al. on page 15772.
