We have used protein-ligand interaction to link gold nanoparticles to dimers that have a well-defined SERS hot spot in the inter-particle gap. The dimer geometry is observed through Rayleigh scattering while the hot spot is probed via Raman spectroscopy. Surface-enhanced Raman emission from the dimer hot spot can be excited when the polarization of the Raman laser beam is parallel to the dimer axis. SERS spectra fluctuate both in shape and amplitude, and Raman emission and Rayleigh scattering spectra are strongly correlated.
