Surface enhanced Raman spectra of Phenylalanine (Phe) in Ag colloidal solution have been recorded for Phe solutions of different pH. Spectral line-shape analyses of the enhanced modes, at 1005, 1380 and 1582 cm-1, between pH 4.5 and 10.5, have been carried out. The variation of spectral line-width with pH reveals two possible mechanisms in solution: (i) the fluctuation of pH in microscopic volume in an overall uniform pH solution and/or (ii) the motional narrowing caused by the intermolecular ionic interaction. We suggest that different charge states of the reference molecule are responsible for the observed bond softening with decrease in pH. The observed Raman shift and the Raman activity of the vibrational modes with maximum enhancement have been explained by carrying out DFT calculations.
