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.

Enhanced Raman Scattering

Strongly enhanced and spatially confined near-fields in the vicinity of plasmonic nanostructures open up exciting new capabilities for photon-driven processes and particularly also for optical spectroscopy. Surface enhanced Raman signatures of single molecules can provide us with important information about the optical near-field. We discuss one- and two-photon excited surface enhanced Raman scattering at the level of single molecules as a tool for probing the plasmonic near-field of silver nanoaggregates. The experiments reveal enhancement factors of local fields in the hottest hot spots of the near-field and their dependence on the photon energy. Also, the number of the hottest spots and their approximate geometrical size are found. Near-field amplitudes in the hottest spots can be enhanced by three orders of magnitudes. Nanoaggregates of 100 nm dimensions provide one hot spot on this highest enhancement level where the enhancement is confined within less than 1nm dimension. The near-field enhancement in the hottest spots increases with decreasing photon energy.
