Interfacial Bonding Induced Charge Transfer in Two-Dimensional Amorphous MoO/Graphdiyne Oxide Non-Van der Waals Heterostructures for Dominant SERS Enhancement.

Two-dimensional semiconductor-based nanomaterials have shown to be an effective substrate for Surface-enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) spectroscopy. However, the enhancement factor (EF) tends to be relatively weak compared to that of noble metals and does not allow for trace detection of molecules. In this work, we report the successful preparation of two-dimensional (2D) amorphous non-van der Waals heterostructures MoO/GDYO nanomaterials using supercritical CO. Due to the synergistic effect of the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect and the charge transfer effect, it exhibits excellent SERS performance in the detection of methylene blue (MB) molecules, with a detection limit as low as 10 M while the enhancement factor (EF) can reach an impressive 2.55×10. More importantly, the chemical bond bridging at the MoO/GDYO heterostructures interface can accelerate the electron transfer between the interfaces, and the large number of defective surface structures on the heterostructures surface facilitates the chemisorption of MB molecules. And the charge recombination lifetime can be proved by a ~1.7-fold increase during their interfacial electron-transfer process for MoO/GDYO@MB mixture, achieving highly sensitive SERS detection.
