Nanostructure silver films were obtained by dc magnetron sputtering at room temperature. The influences of deposition time on the morphology and optical properties were studied by field-emission scanning electron microscope and UV-vis NIR spectrophotometer. It was found that the optical properties of the nanostructure silver film can be effect by surface morphology. The surface enhanced Raman scattering activities of nanostructure Ag films were demonstrated by methylene blue (MB) as probing molecules while the detection limit of MB was found to be as low as 10-5 M from this SERS substrate.

In this research we study optical absorption and morphology of silver films prepared with a sputtering method. Silver granular films are obtained on a glass substrate for films with thickness smaller than about 60 Å. Superficial silver clusters of around 100 nm in diameter are clearly seen in the atomic force micrographs. The absorption of these samples are characterized by plasmon excitation in the 450-650 nm spectral range, which differs from the known excitation of silver nanoparticles fabricated by different techniques. The optical absorption of silver granular films depend on sputtering conditions like substrate temperature or deposition rate and correlates with the surface morphology.
