The Raman response of surfaces or thin films is often too weak to be detected and obscured by dominant bulk signals. Here we overcome this limitation by placing a transferable porous Au membrane (PAuM) on top of the surface of interest. Slot-like nanopores in the membrane act as plasmonic slot antennas and enhance the Raman response of the surface underneath. The PAuM also suppresses the penetration of the excitation laser into the bulk, efficiently blocking the bulk Raman signal. Using graphene as a model surface, we show that these two effects increase the surface-to-bulk Raman signal ratio by 3 orders of magnitude. We find that 90% of the Raman enhancement occurs within the top 2.5 nm of the material, demonstrating truly surface-sensitive Raman scattering. To validate our approach, we analyze the surface of a LaNiO3 thin film, observing a Raman mode splitting from the surface-layer, which is evidence that the surface structure differs from bulk. This shows that PAuM give direct access to Raman signals of surfaces and their structural properties.
