Abstract

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectra of the chemical nerve agent simulants dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP) and diisopropyl methylphosphonate (DIMP) were obtained in the vapor phase. The spectra obtained demonstrate the possibility of detecting these nerve agent species in the vapor phase using electrochemically roughened silver oxide substrates prepared from silver foil.
