Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy: substrate-related issues

After over 30 years of development, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is now facing a very important stage in its history. The explosive development of nanoscience and nanotechnology has assisted the rapid development of SERS, especially during the last 5 years. Further development of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy is mainly limited by the reproducible preparation of clean and highly surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) active substrates. This review deals with some substrate-related issues. Various methods will be introduced for preparing SERS substrates of Ag and Au for analytical purposes, from SERS substrates prepared by electrochemical or vacuum methods, to well-dispersed Au or Ag nanoparticle sols, to nanoparticle thin film substrates, and finally to ordered nanostructured substrates. Emphasis is placed on the analysis of the advantages and weaknesses of different methods in preparing SERS substrates. Closely related to the application of SERS in the analysis of trace sample and unknown systems, the existing cleaning methods for SERS substrates are analyzed and a combined chemical adsorption and electrochemical oxidation method is proposed to eliminate the interference of contaminants. A defocusing method is proposed to deal with the laser-induced sample decomposition problem frequently met in SERS measurement to obtain strong signals. The existing methods to estimate the surface enhancement factor, a criterion to characterize the SERS activity of a substrate, are analyzed and some guidelines are proposed to obtain the correct enhancement factor.

Detecting trace melamine in solution by SERS using Ag nanoparticle coated poly(styrene-co-acrylic acid) nanospheres as novel active substrates

A systematic study for the preparation of Ag nanoparticle (Ag-NP) coated poly(styrene-co-acrylic acid) (PSA) composite nanospheres by in situ chemical reduction is reported. The experimental results showed that the reaction temperature and the surface coverage of the -COOH determined the surface coverage and grain size of Ag nanoparticles on the PSA nanospheres. The surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) sensitivity was investigated using 4-hydroxythiophenol (4-HBT) as the model probe in the solution of composite nanospheres stabilized by polyvinylpyrrolidone (PSA/Ag-NPs/PVP), with the detection limit of about 1 × 10(-6) M. Potential application of the new SERS substrate was demonstrated with the detection of melamine, and the detection limit was about 1 × 10(-3) M. Chemical noises from PVP and other impurities were observed and attributed mainly to the competitive adsorption of PVP on the surfaces of Ag-NPs. After tetrahydrofuran washing of the PSA/Ag-NPs/PVP substrates that removed the PVP and other residuals, the signal/noise levels of SERS were greatly improved and the detection limit of melamine was determined to be 1 × 10(-7) M. This result indicated that the new PSA/Ag-NPs system is highly effective and can be used as the SERS-active substrate for trace analysis of a variety of drugs and food additives.

A review of opportunities for electrospun nanofibers in analytical chemistry

Challenges associated with analyte and matrix complexities and the ever increasing pressure from all sectors of industry for alternative analytical devices, have necessitated the development and application of new materials in analytical chemistry. To date, nanomaterials have emerged as having excellent properties for analytical chemistry applications mainly due to their large surface area to volume ratio and the availability of a wide variety of chemical and morphological modification methods. Of the available nanofibrous material fabrication methods, electrospinning has emerged as the most versatile. It is the aim of this contribution to highlight some of the recent developments that harness the great potential shown by electrospun nanofibers for application in analytical chemistry. The review discusses the use of electrospun nanofibers as a platform for low resolution separation or as a chromatographic sorbent bed for high resolution separation. It concludes by discussing the applications of electrospun nanofibers in detection systems with a specific focus on the development of simple electrospun nanofiber based colorimetric probes.     

Fabrication and Formation Mechanism of Ag Nanoplate‐Decorated Nanofiber Mats and Their Application in SERS

We report a new simple method to fabricate a highly active SERS substrate consisting of poly‐m‐phenylenediamine/polyacrylonitrile (PmPD/PAN) decorated with Ag nanoplates. The formation mechanism of Ag nanoplates is investigated. The synthetic process of the Ag nanoplate‐decorated PmPD/PAN (Ag nanoplates@PmPD/PAN) nanofiber mats consists of the assembly of Ag nanoparticles on the surface of PmPD/PAN nanofibers as crystal nuclei followed by in situ growth of Ag nanoparticles exclusively into nanoplates. Both the reducibility of the polymer and the concentration of AgNO₃ are found to play important roles in the formation and the density of Ag nanoplates. The optimized Ag nanoplates@PmPD/PAN nanofiber mats exhibit excellent activity and reproducibility in surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) detection of 4‐mercaptobenzoic acid (4‐MBA) with a detection limit of 10^?10 m , making the Ag nanoplates@PmPD/PAN nanofiber mats a promising substrate for SERS detection of chemical molecules. In addition, this work also provides a design and fabrication process for a 3D SERS substrate made of a reducible polymer with noble metals.     

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering of a series of n-hydroxybenzoic acids (n = P, M and O) on the silver nano-particles

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectra of a series of n-hydroxybenzoic acids (n-HBA, n = P, M and O) adsorbed on the silver nano-particles were studied, respectively, in the silver colloidal solution and on the dried silver-coated filter paper. On the same substrate, the different molecules' SERS spectra were different, while on the different substrates the same molecules' SERS spectra were also different. Significant changes were found in the SERS spectra of PHBA molecules adsorbed on the two substrates, and the changes found in MHBA's spectra on two substrates were next to PHBA's, while almost no changes were found in the spectra of OHBA molecules. Moreover, it was found, on the filter paper, that the SERS spectra of the same molecules would change with the coverage density of the silver nano-particles. The analyses showed that the origins of these changes were the different adsorption behavior of molecules adsorbed on the silver nano-particles. Because in these three molecules the relative positions of the carboxyls and hydroxyls on the benzenes are different, the adsorption behaviors of these three molecules adsorbed on the silver surfaces are also different. The experimental results suggest that the surface characteristic of the substrate and the surface configuration of the adsorbate could exert a great influence on the adsorption behavior of the adsorbates on the substrates.     

Improved conversion efficiency in dye-sensitized solar cells based on electrospun Al-doped ZnO nanofiber electrodes prepared by seed layer treatment

The application of electrospun nanofibers in electronic devices is limited due to their poor adhesion to conductive substrates. To improve this, a seed layer (SD) is introduced on the FTO substrate before the deposition of the electrospun composite nanofibers. This facilitates the release of interfacial tensile stress during calcination and enhances the interfacial adhesion of the AZO nanofiber films with the FTO substrate. Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) based on these AZO nanofiber photoelectrodes have been fabricated and investigated. An energy conversion efficiency (η) of 0.54-0.55% has been obtained under irradiation of AM 1.5 simulated sunlight (100 mW/cm²), indicating a massive improvement of η in the AZO nanofiber film DSSCs after SD-treatment of the FTO substrate as compared to those with no treatment. The SD-treatment has been demonstrated to be a simple and facile method to solve the problem of poor adhesion between electrospun nanofibers and the conductive substrate.     

Surface-enhanced vibrational spectroscopy of B vitamins: what is the effect of SERS-active metals used?

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy and surface-enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA) spectroscopy are analytical tools suitable for the detection of small amounts of various analytes adsorbed on metal surfaces. During recent years, these two spectroscopic methods have become increasingly important in the investigation of adsorption of biomolecules and pharmaceuticals on nanostructured metal surfaces. In this work, the adsorption of B-group vitamins pyridoxine, nicotinic acid, folic acid and riboflavin at electrochemically prepared gold and silver substrates was investigated using Fourier transform SERS spectroscopy at an excitation wavelength of 1,064 nm. Gold and silver substrates were prepared by cathodic reduction on massive platinum targets. In the case of gold substrates, oxidation–reduction cycles were applied to increase the enhancement factor of the gold surface. The SERS spectra of riboflavin, nicotinic acid, folic acid and pyridoxine adsorbed on silver substrates differ significantly from SERS spectra of these B-group vitamins adsorbed on gold substrates. The analysis of near-infrared-excited SERS spectra reveals that each of B-group vitamin investigated interacts with the gold surface via a different mechanism of adsorption to that with the silver surface. In the case of riboflavin adsorbed on silver substrate, the interpretation of surface-enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA) spectra was also helpful in investigation of the adsorption mechanism.
