Gold nanoparticle self-assembly behaviour on a mica surface was investigated. A large-scale modified partially hydrated polyacrylamide network on a mica surface was successfully fabricated with a simple method. Gold nanoparticles were self-assembled onto a two-dimensional polymer network template by electrostatic interaction, and an interesting nanostructured gold morphology with controllable interparticle spacing was formed on the mica surface. By adjusting the gold aqueous concentrations, the particle distance could be optimized to approach strongest coupling between adjacent particles and match the plasmon resonance wavelength to the laser excitation wavelength. Thus, the spacing between nanoparticles could be controlled for tunable surface-enhanced Raman scattering substrates for optimal signal amplification.

Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a promising analytical tool due to its label-free detection ability and superior sensitivity, which enable the detection of single molecules. Since its sensitivity is highly dependent on localized surface plasmon resonance, various methods have been applied for electric field-enhanced metal nanostructures. Despite the intensive research on practical applications of SERS, fabricating a sensitive and reproducible SERS sensor using a simple and low-cost process remains a challenge. Here, we report a simple strategy to produce a large-scale gold nanoparticle array based on laser interference lithography and the electrophoretic deposition of gold nanoparticles, generated through a pulsed laser ablation in liquid process. The fabricated gold nanoparticle array produced a sensitive, reproducible SERS signal, which allowed Rhodamine 6G to be detected at a concentration as low as 10−8 M, with an enhancement factor of 1.25 × 105. This advantageous fabrication strategy is expected to enable practical SERS applications.
