Zachary D. Schultz's research develops and applies surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS, a technique that uses metal nanostructures to boost the light-scattering signal of nearby molecules for highly sensitive detection) and related nanomaterial-based sensing tools. Applications span biomedical diagnostics, single-molecule and single-cell chemical imaging, electrocatalysis for CO2 and nitrogen reduction reactions, and materials analysis such as historical documents. The group combines spectroscopy, nanoparticle synthesis, and instrumentation development with computational and mechanistic studies.
