Tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) is a powerful nanoscale vibrational microspectroscopy combining high-spatial resolution of SPM with chemical sensitivity of surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy [1, 2, 3]. We report the TERS measurement of the ultrathin ZnO layers epitaxially grown on a Ag(111) surface. The enhancement mechanisms were examined in detail by a combination of STS and STM-induced luminescence spectroscopy with the TERS measurements. We found a clear correlation between the TERS signal and the plasmonic properties of the STM junction. It was also revealed that the TERS intensity increases exponentially with decreasing the tip-surface distance and the decay constant is largely different inside and outside the tunneling regime. Our results provide a detailed insights into the TERS mechanism and the plasmonic properties relevant for field enhancement and confinement in nanoscale cavities. References [1] Annu. Rev. Phys.
