It would be beneficial for photoelectrochemical experiments in microfluidic environments to be able to locally heat and directly measure the realized temperature. Surface enhanced Raman scattering can be used to locally measure the temperature of molecules, as the scattering peak heights depend on the probability density of vibrational states.
Here we provide evidence that our recently developed two wire grating SERS substrates [1] can be heated very locally using its Ohmic resistance. We measure its resulting temperature using the Raman peaks of a self-assembled monolayer of 4-MBA molecules in dependency of the heating current and fitting a probability density function approach. We back up the experiment with optical and heat simulations. This platform is ready to be implemented in microfluidic systems to measure SERS at the very same position where heat is applied.
