Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) constitutes a spectroscopic method of rapidly growing importance, and polystyrene is a widely used compound of great industrial importance. In this work, SERS data were obtained from polystyrene samples prepared by vapor deposition of gold and plasma‐induced polymerization of styrene gas. A thorough examination of this data is presented. The relationships between sample preparation parameters, gold‐cluster morphology, and SERS intensity were elucidated. Using Wilson's notation, vibrations were assigned to all bands between 250 and 1750 cm −1 in the ordinary Raman and SERS spectra of polystyrene. The correct assignment of these bands would be a significant achievement because they have been controversial in the literature for ∼30 years. Our assignments were made by reviewing the literature and comparing the assignments found there to spectral data acquired during this study; they were confirmed using density functional theory (DFT) calculations performed on the styrene monomer. The orientation of polystyrene's phenyl ring, relative to the gold surface, was determined. It has been suggested that reactions involving silver catalyze polystyrene degradation during SERS, but we found that silver is not necessary for the degradation to occur.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
