A theory of surface-enhanced Raman scattering is proposed.Proceeding from an assump- tion that plasrnons serve as intermediate states, a careful account is taken of the molecule-plasmon interaction, which is supposed to be of a resonant character.The light-plasmon interaction, possible only via roughness, is employed according to the perturbation theory.The theory indicates the necessary order of the enhancement coefficient and its concentrational saturation.The expressions for the frequency and angular dependences of the efect have been obtained.
