Various Au-Ag bimetallic alloy nanostructures were obtained as sensitive surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates by changing the thermal annealing sequence. The atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results confirm that Au/Ag bimetallic clusters and Ag-Au core-shell like structures can be designed by thermal annealing. The absorption spectra showed that the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) frequency of the annealed Au/Ag bimetallic alloy structure could effectively shift from the near ultraviolet to the visible region. At the same time, the Au/Ag bimetallic alloy films modified by thermal annealing have shown satisfactory performance as SERS substrates. Raman enhancement mechanism of Au-Ag bimetallic alloy films is verified by finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation results.
通过改变热退火顺序,获得了各种金-银双金属合金纳米结构作为灵敏的表面增强拉曼散射(SERS)基底。原子力显微镜(AFM)和扫描电子显微镜(SEM)结果证实,通过热退火可以设计出金/银双金属簇和银-金核壳状结构。吸收光谱表明,退火后的金/银双金属合金结构的局域表面等离子体共振(LSPR)频率可以有效地从近紫外区域转移到可见光区域。同时,经热退火修饰的金/银双金属合金薄膜作为SERS基底表现出令人满意的性能。有限时域差分(FDTD)模拟结果验证了金-银双金属合金薄膜的拉曼增强机制。
