Abstract Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is a powerful spectroscopic technique for ultrasensitive and selective bio-chemical detection due to its capability of providing “fingerprint” information of molecular structures in low concentrations even at single molecular level. In this work, we present the silver nanoparticles/porous silicon (AgNPs/PSi) hybrid structures as SERS substrates prepared by a fast, straightforward and effective method using the PSi immersion plating in silver nitrate (AgNO3) solution. The nano-silvers can simultaneously grow on the surface and nano-pillars of porous silicon making quasi-three-dimension (quasi-3D) structural SERS substrate that has a large surface area to adsorb moleculars for SERS measurement. The proposed SERS substrate can detect Diphenylamine (DPA) with ultralow concentration of 10-9 M (~0.17 ppb), which would have higher enhancement than 2D surface SERS based on nano-silver deposited on silicon substrate and other electrochemical sensors.

Recently, photochemical synthesis has attracted wide interest on in situ preparing the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate with excellent performance, especially in a compact space and microfluidic channel. Herein, a facile, green and cost-effective approach to in situ photochemically synthesize silver nanoaggregates is demonstrated for SERS applications. By adjusting the photo-irradiation conditions, the morphologies and sizes of the silver nanoaggregates can be deliberately tailored. The synthesized silver nanoaggregates-based substrates exhibit a highly sensitive and reproducible SERS activity with a low detection limit of 10−8 M for 4-Aminothiophenol detection and relative standard deviation of 12.3%, paving an efficient and promising route for in situ SERS-based rapid detection in the environmental monitoring and food quality control.

A simple polymer substrate for inducing Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) has been investigated. This SERS substrate consists of a solid support, such as a glass slide covered with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) impregnated with fine silver nanoparticles. The preparation simply involves mixing aqueous PVA polymer with solid AgNO3 to produce a solution that can be easily spin coated on the glass substrate and dried to obtain a hard translucent coating. Aqueous solution of FeSO4·7H2O was used to reduce Ag+ ions to silver nanoparticles. The effects of various experimental conditions of sample preparation were investigated in order to improve the Raman enhancement efficiency of the substrate. The overall substrate performance was evaluated with the use of biologically important compounds: benzoic acid, p-amino benzoic acid, pyridine and dopamine. The spectral features of these compounds closely matched with those reported in literature. The use of the polymer matrix made the SERS substrate resistant to scratching, therefore, improving it to be more suitable for field applications. The hydrophilic nature of the polymer provides additional advantages for probing biological samples. The shelf-life of the dried, unreduced substrates is at least one month.
