The effect of field enhancement at nanoscale metallic structures is critical to optical phenomena such as surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). Assemblies of coupled metal nanoparticles attracted high interest as SERS active systems supporting so called hot-spots of the electric field. Most recently tip-enhanced Raman scattering (TERS), where a metallic tip is situated near a smooth surface covered by Raman active species has been reported. The experimental results show, that only a small amount of molecules in the near-field of the laser irradiated tip-apex contributes to an observed characteristic Raman spectrum. The tip acts in these experiments similar to a single particle supporting a single hot-spot, which enhances the incident electric field. Different experimental approaches on TERS have been realized using metal coated AFM cantilevers or STM tips. Here we present an approach on near-field Raman spectroscopy using the tetrahedral SNOM tip to investigate molecular monolayers on gold films.
