大孔柚子型微结构光纤探针的表面增强拉曼散射性能研究

聚多巴胺原位还原银纳米增强碳点荧光自组装纳米复合膜用于检测葛根素研究

以胱氨酸和柠檬酸为碳源,采用一步水热法合成了氮硫掺杂结构的蓝色荧光碳点(FCDs)。FCDs在350 nm波长光源激发下,于455 nm出现最大的荧光发射峰。碳点水溶液在pH=6~11范围内都呈现稳定的荧光发射,具有61.7%的高荧光量子产率和10.75 ns的长荧光寿命。以此碳点为目标物,设计层层自组装膜的简易制备方案,探究银纳米复合基底对其荧光信号的增强效应,通过增强型荧光传感膜实现提高药物检测灵敏度的目的。实验过程中利用多巴胺碱性溶液的自聚合和还原效应,在玻璃基底上形成平整的聚多巴胺膜,同步进行硝酸银原位还原,可制得均匀分散的聚多巴胺复合银纳米膜基底。紫外光谱、荧光光谱、扫描电子显微镜和电子能谱检测结果表明,在多巴胺聚合膜形成过程中原位还原的银纳米,具有操作简便和稳定性能好优点,纳米颗粒不易被氧化。结合层层自组装多层膜技术(layer-by-layer self-assembled mutilayers, LBL SAMs),在纳米复合膜表面组装聚电解质分子层,精确调控银纳米与碳点的间隔距离,构建荧光性自组装膜FTO/PDA-AgN/PDDA/[PSS/PDDA]₃/FCDs,探究银纳米对碳点的荧光增强效应。研究结果表明,当聚多巴胺复合银纳米基底与碳点之间达到一定间隔距离时,银纳米粒子可增强自组装膜上碳点的荧光信号,荧光强度增加近3倍,相应的荧光寿命由6.084 ns减小至2.983 ns。这种荧光增强效应呈现出来的距离依赖性、辐射衰减加快和与银纳米还原程度相关性,表明增强荧光的机理可能为银纳米和碳点之间的局域表面等离子共振效应。葛根素的加入使传感膜上碳点的荧光信号发生猝灭,猝灭的程度和葛根素的含量在3.33×10-7~1.50×10-5 mol·L-1范围内呈现良好的线性关系,可建立荧光传感薄膜对葛根素的含量检测。线性回归方程为I₀/I=2.843×104c_Pue+1.068,相关系数r=0.9985 6,检出限QL=2.31×10-7 mol·L-1。相比于FTO/PDA/PDDA/[PSS/PDDA]₃/FCDs,增强荧光型传感膜明显提高了对葛根素的响应灵敏度,检测限降低近一个数量级。     

An improved self‐assembly gold colloid film as surface‐enhanced Raman substrate for detection of trace‐level polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in aqueous solution

To detect trace‐level polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, some investigations of an improved self‐assembly method are carried out using gold colloid films for the preparation of the surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)‐active substrate. Extinction spectra and scanning electron microscopy images reveal that controllable surface plasmonic metal substrates can be obtained by increasing the temperature of (3‐aminopropyl)trimethoxysilane solution up to 64.5 °C. The SERS‐active substrates have a high enhancement factor, and they can be both easily prepared and reproducible. With the use of these substrates, different concentrations of pyrene and anthracene in aqueous solutions were detected by SERS. A further enhancement can be supported by shifted excitation Raman difference spectroscopy. Raman signals of pyrene and anthracene adsorbed on gold colloid substrates up to limits of detection at 5 and 1 nmol/l, respectively, can be obtained. The quantitative analysis shows the possibility of in situ detection of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons while such gold colloid film serves as a SERS‐active substrate.

SERS activity and stability of the most frequently used silver colloids

Single‐molecule detection by surface‐enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS) spectroscopy has been demonstrated for a variety of molecules. The detection of single molecules that do not have a resonance contribution, SERS, has been shown in the case of adenine. However, when colloidal particles isolated on planar substrates are used as the enhancing medium, the presence of anomalous signals significantly complicates the analysis of the spectra. Selection of a silver colloid that minimizes these spurious signals should improve the ultra‐sensitive detection of non‐resonant single molecules by SERS. A range of silver colloids, prepared by different methods, were investigated with respect to their activity and stability. Minimal anomalous signals were obtained from hydroxylamine‐reduced silver colloids, which suggests that this colloid will be better for ultra‐sensitive SE(R)RS experiments compared to the more common citrate‐ and borohydride‐reduced silver colloids.

A simple method for the preparation of ultrahigh sensitivity surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) active substrate

By immersing mica modified with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) into the silver colloid, a high efficient surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) active substrate was formed within 2 h at room temperature. The limit of detection of the substrate for Rhodamine 6G is up to 1×10⁻¹⁴ M. Changing the concentration of silver colloid and the treating time, various silver aggregates such as nanocrystals, clusters and films were found, and the SERS spectra of these aggregates were also obtained. The results of SERS revealed that CTAB could accelerate aggregation of the silver colloid and cause great Raman enhancement. Bilayer of CTAB is very important for aggregation of silver colloid and the aggregation extent is the main factor for the enormous enhancement on this substrate.     

Self-assembled silver nanoparticle films at an air-liquid interface and their applications in SERS and electrochemistry

In this paper, we present a novel technique to prepare silver nanoparticle films by controlling the self-assembly of nanoparticles at an air-liquid interface. In an ethanol-water phase, silver nanoparticles were prepared by reduction of AgNO₃ aqueous solution with NaBH₄ in the presence of cinnamic acid. It was found that the silver nanoparticles in this process could be trapped at the air-liquid interface to form 2-dimensional nanoparticle films. The morphology of nanoparticle films could be controlled by systematic variation of the experimental parameters. It is worth noting that the nanoparticle films could serve as the active substrates for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). 4-Aminothiophenol (4-ATP) molecule was used as a test probe to investigate the SERS sensitivity of different nanoparticle films. The results indicated that the nanoparticle films showed excellent Raman enhancement effect. Furthermore, the nanoparticle films prepared by our strategy were found to be efficient electrocatalysts for anodic oxidation of formaldehyde in alkaline medium.     

Silver nanoplates: controlled preparation, self-assembly, and applications in surface-enhanced Raman scattering

Silver nanoplates were prepared in a dual reduction system with NaBH₄ and sodium citrate both as reducing agents. And then the as-prepared nanoplates could be growing up through multistage growth methodology. The average edge length of Ag nanoplates can be tailored from 40 nm to 260 nm without changing their shape, crystallinity, and the average thickness. Furthermore, the effectiveness of these silver nanoplates as substrates prepared by the silanization self-assembly method toward surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) detection was evaluated by using 4-aminothiophenol (4-ATP) and rhodamine 6G (R6G) as probe molecules. It was found that the enhancement ability of the silver nanoplates film is remarkable lower than that of the spherical silver nanoparticle film. The reason is attributed to the electromagnetic mechanism and chemical mechanism. This work will be of great significance in understanding the SERS enhancement mechanism and in the fabrication of nanoparticle films for biosensing.
