12. The choice of such nonmetallic substrates as a reference without SEF is a common practice in the literature. On an atomically smooth Ag(111), we obtained no detectable fluorescence signals unless spacers thicker than ∼30 Å were used, because of the extremely strong quenching by smooth metal surfaces.
