Our results show that there is partial recover of SERS spectral profile following heating. Our results show that chemical enhanced b2-type modes are affected differently relative to electromagnetic enhanced a1-type modes and to the continuum emission background.enThis is the author’s version of a work that was accepted for publication in Chemical Physics Letters.
