We show the formation of metallic spikes on the surface of gold nanotriangles (AuNTs) by using the same reduction process which has been used for the synthesis of gold nanostars leading to a higher SERS enhancement by a factor of 75.

Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a powerful analytical technique and has been most intensively studied. In this work, electroless deposition is proposed for Ag nanoparticles (NPs) decorated on chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth graphene sheets (GS) to create hybrid SERS substrate. From three aspects of size distribution, morphology, and coverage, Ag NPs controllable decoration on GS and SERS enhancement factors of the hybrid SERS substrate is investigated. 200–300 times enhanced SERS intensities are detected from the Ag NPs on GS hybrid as compared to pure GS. Controllable decoration is crucial for improving SERS enhancement factorsβEF, becauseβEFfrom quasi cubic Ag NPs on GS is 6.53 times stronger than that from spheric one; 1.6 timesβEFis detected while the Ag NPs size distribution is reduced to half, and when the coverage is doubled,βEFis nearly doubled. This controllable Ag NPs/GS hybrid is capable of serving as a high performance SERS substrate for efficient chemical and biological sensing applications.

A highly enhanced, reproducible Raman signal of the 4-MBA molecule was observed on the surface of SiCNWs. Improved SERS enhancement was also achieved in these nanowhiskers by adjusting the energy levels.
