Abstract The current study examines recent advancements in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), a technique that employs flexible surfaces as an active substrate, this surfaces consist from two-dimensional thermo-plasmonic grating. With 53 nm Au layer (was deposited on the 2D grating structure of the PDMS by the PVD method). The explosive wire technique was used to preparing Ag nanoparticles that were used for the purpose of SERS. The effect of the plasmonic nanostructures on the absorption spectra and Surface - Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) activities was examined. Rhodamine 6G dye was used as a probe molecule. X-Ray diffraction (XRD) was used to examine the structural characteristics of the nanoparticles. The morphology was assessed using Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy(FESEM). A twin beam UV-Vis Spectrophotometer was used to measure the absorption of the combined Rh6G dye (concentration 1×10“–6M) with the nanostructures. a Sunshine Raman microscope system and a 50mm objective lens, used for investigating the Raman spectra of the Rh6G combined with nanostructures. The results showed that the enhancement factor (EF) for SERS of R6G (1×M) reached to (2.2×10 3) When using Ag nanoparticles and (0.08 × 103) when R6G deposited directly on the flexible substrates without nanostructures at the wave number (1650 cm−1), we produced a recyclable, homogeneous, and highly sensitive SERS substrate with dependable reproducibility. For the SERS substrate, a surface made up of two-dimensional (2D) flexible grating substrates was chosen to provide multiple modalities in electrical and medicinal applications.

Abstract Regulation of hot spots exhibits excellent potential in many applications including nanolasers, energy harvesting, sensing, and subwavelength imaging. Here, hat-shaped hierarchical nanostructures with different space curvatures have been proposed to enhance hot spots for facilitating surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and plasmon-driven catalysis applications. These novel nanostructures comprise two layers of metal nanoparticles separated by hat-shaped MoS2 films. The fabrication of this hybrid structure is based on the thermal annealing and thermal evaporation of self-assembled polystyrene spheres, which are convenient to control the metal particle size and the curvature of hat-shaped nanostructures. Based on the narrow gaps produced by the MoS2 films and the curvature of space, the constructed platform exhibits superior SERS capability and achieves ultrasensitive detection for toxic molecules. Furthermore, the surface catalytic conversion of p-nitrothiophenol (PNTP) to p, p′-dimercaptobenzene (DMAB) was in situ monitored by the SERS substrate. The mechanism governing this regulation of hot spots is also investigated via theoretical simulations.

A simple method for improving surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) performance of aligned silver nanorod (Ag NR) array was investigated. This method was to construct a kind of hybrid substrate by grafting Au@Ag core–shell nanoparticles (NPs) into Ag NR array using poly(2-vinylphridine) (P2VPy) as a bridging agent. The hybrid substrate yielded excellent SERS performance as its detection limit improved from 10[Formula: see text] M to 10[Formula: see text] M using trans-1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene (BPE) as probe molecule, which was increased by two orders of magnitude compared with Ag NR array substrate. The significant improvement of SERS performance of Ag NR arrays was attributed to the addition of Au@Ag core–shell NPs. As a result of surface plasmon resonance generated by the interaction of electromagnetic (EM) (IAEM) filed between NP and NR structures, increasing hotspots were found at the connections of NPs and NRs, the gaps of adjacent rods, and the gaps of two particles consequently. These results were validated by the finite difference time domain (FDTD) calculation. Besides, hybrid substrate shows good performance in stability and reproducibility. The proposed method was simple and robust, which promoted SERS performance of Ag NR array effectively, showing great potential in the application of SERS substrate fabrication and SERS-based bio-chemical sensing.

Metallic film-coated porous silicon (PSi) has been reported as a lucrative surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate. The solution-based fabrication process is facile and easy; however, it requires additional reducing agent and extra chemical treatment, as well as hinders the suitability as a reproducible SERS substrate due to irregular hot spot generation via irregular deposition of metallic nanocrystallites. To address this issue, we report a unique one-step electronic beam (e-beam) physical vapor deposition (PVD) method to fabricate a consistent layer of gold (Au) nanofilm on PSi. Moreover, to achieve the best output as a SERS substrate, PSi prepared by electrochemical etching was used as template to generate an Au layer of irregular surface, offering the surface roughness feature of the PSi–Au thin film. Furthermore, to investigate the etching role and Au film thickness, Au-nanocrystallites of varying thickness (5, 7, and 10 nm) showing discrete surface morphology were characterized and evaluated for SERS effect using Rhodamine 6G (R6G). The SERS signal of R6G adsorbed on PSi–Au thin film showed a marked enhancement, around three-fold enhancement factor (EF), than the Si–Au thin film. The optimal SERS output was obtained for PSi–Au substrate of 7 nm Au film thickness. This study thus indicates that the SERS enhancement relies on the Au film thickness and the roughness feature of the PSi–Au substrate.
