Nanoparticle-coated PDMS elastomers for enhancement of Raman scattering.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A simple but efficient method for highly sensitive Raman detection, covering a thin polydimethylsiloxane elastomer, pre-coated with a layer of Au or Ag nanoparticles, onto the detected substrate, is proposed. Moreover, this nanoparticle-coated PDMS elastomer can be used for chemical imaging with high sensitivity.

Wide-Band Spectral Control of Au Nanoparticle Plasmon Resonances on a Thermally and Chemically Robust Sensing Platform
Gold nanoparticles on Al2O3-coated gold films are presented as a chemically and thermally robust platform for molecular sensing. Single particle spectroscopy as a function of Al2O3 coating thickness shows reproducible gold nanoparticle scattering spectra in the range from 690 to 610 nm as the Al2O3 thickness increases from 0 to 3.4 nm. Numerical simulation of these structures indicates that sur...

The ability to measure orientation in dual or multi-phase materials is of current relevance in the study of the constitution and deformation characteristics of the separate phases in many technologically important polymeric systems. Raman spectroscopy is a very useful tool in this regard because separation of the scattered Raman intensities by phase is possible and because it can be used accura...

Using the tip-based continuous indentation process, arrays of three-dimensional pyramidal cavities have been successfully machined on a copper template and the structures were successfully transferred to a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) surface using a reverse nanoimprinting approach. The structured PDMS surface is coated with a thin Au film, and the final substrate is demonstrated as a surface-en...
متن کاملSurface-Enhanced Raman Scattering Study on Graphene-Coated Metallic Nanostructure Substrates.
Graphene, which has a linear electronic band structure, is widely considered as a semimetal. In the present study, we combine graphene with conventional metallic surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates to achieve higher sensitivity of SERS detection. We synthesize high-quality, single-layer graphene sheets by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and transfer them from copper foils to gol...
