الوصف: We present a two-step procedure to probe hotspots of plasmon-enhanced Raman scattering with carbon nanotubes. Dielectrophoretic deposition places a small carbon nanotube bundle on top of plasmonic Au nanodimer. After 'pre-characterising' both the nanotubes and dimer structure, we subsequently use the tip of an AFM to push the bundle into the plasmonic hotspot located in the 25nm wide dimer gap, characterize its location inside the gap, and observe the onset of plasmon-enhanced Raman scattering. Evidence for the activation of the carbon nanotube's double-resonant D-mode by the near-field of the plasmonic hotspot is discussed.
