Problems solved by technology

This technology uses precious metals such as gold and silver to prepare SERS substrates with high activity, but the low melting point of noble metal nanostructures limits the detection application of SERS substrates under high temperature conditions; at the same time, the material, structure, size, etc. of the substrate will be significantly Therefore, it is necessary to rationally design the morphology and structure of the substrate to improve the SERS activity.
[0003] It has been reported that silver nanorod arrays were prepared as SERS substrates by using the inclined growth method, but because the spacing of the nanorods is 50-100nm, the local electromagnetic field enhancement effect between the nanorods is weak, which affects the SERS enhancement ability of the substrate; another report Atomic layer deposition technology is used to coat a complete oxide layer on the surface of silver nanorods to improve the thermal stability of the substrate, but because the oxide layer completely isolates the silver surface from the molecules to be detected, the SERS activity of the substrate is sacrificed to a certain extent.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of detection of trace organics and discloses a surface-enhanced Raman substrate and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method employing obliquegrowth comprises: depositing an oxide layer at the top end of a silver nanorod array; depositing silver nano particles at the top end of the oxide layer to obtain silver nanorod-oxide-silver particlecomposite serving as the surface-enhanced Raman substrate. The surface-enhanced Raman substrate prepared via the preparation method gains improved thermal stability owing to high melting point of theoxide layer and protection for silver nanorods; the silver nanorods and the silver nano particles are isolated via the oxide layer which is ultra-thin, strong local electromagnetic field enhancement is provided at a gap, and therefore, sensitivity of the substrate herein is greatly improved. The substrate herein is applicable to detection at high temperatures, has great signal-enhancing capacity,provides a widened applicable range for surface enhanced Raman technology, and has great development potential.
