[0004] In order to deposit metallic silver nanoparticles on the surface of silicon nanowires, it has been reported to apply vacuum thermal evaporation method and ion sputtering method (Linyou Cao, Bora Garipcan, Eric M. Gallo, Stephen S. Nonenmann, Bahra-m Nabet, and Jonathan E .Spanier, Nano Lett, 2008, 8, 601 and C.P Li, X.H.Sun, N.B.Wong, C.S.Lee, S.T.Lee, B.K.Teo, J.Phys.Chem.B 2002, 106, 6980), but this is based on surface physics The preparation method of deposition, the equipment is relatively complicated, the particle distribution is uneven, and the particles are easy to fall off the surface with time, which leads to unstable detection signals
There are also literature reports on the application of chemical redox method to deposit metal particles (M.L.Zhang, C.Q.Yi, X.Fan, K.Q.Peng, N.B.Wong, M.S.Yang, R.Q.Zhang, and S.T, Lee, Appl.Phys.Lett, 2008, 92, 043116), the SERS detection substrate prepared by this method is relatively stable due to the chemical combination between metal particles and silicon nanowires, but the size of the prepared silver nanoparticles is too small, only in the range of 4-25nm, which cannot be used as a super Conditions for Sensitive Detection

[0023] Example 1. Preparation of silicon nanowires with controllable surface modification of silver particles as a single-molecule SERS detection substrate

[0024] The silicon nanowires used in this example are obtained by using an existing method: using tin powder as a catalyst, and thermally evaporating SiO powder; the details are as follows: Weigh 3.0g SiO powder and 0.5g Sn powder, place them in a porcelain boat and mix them evenly. The porcelain boat is placed in the high temperature zone of the vacuum tube furnace, and the vacuum tube furnace is closed; the air is pumped until the pressure in the furnace chamber reaches 5×10 -2 After mbar, the mixed gas of argon and hydrogen is introduced until the pressure in the furnace is 350mbar, and the high temperature zone in the furnace is heated to 1360°C at a speed of 40°C / min, kept for 7-8h, and then cooled to room temperature.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for loading silver particles on the surface of silicon nanowires. The method comprises the following steps: dispersing the silicon nanowires without a surface oxide layer in a cetyl-trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) aqueous solution to obtain a dispersion solution of the silicon nanowires; adding a silver nitrate solution to the dispersion solution of the silicon nanowires while stirring, and reacting at room temperature; and centrifuging the obtained reaction solution after reaction, and colleting precipitate to obtain the silicon nanowires loaded with silver particles on the surface. The method is simple and rapid, and the adopted equipment is cheap. By utilizing the method, the silicon nanowires can be prepared in quantity, and topographical dispersion density of the silver particles deposited on the surface of the silicon nanowires can be regulated and controlled by changing the concentrations of the dispersion solution and the silver nitrate solution, thus meeting different needs.
