We proposed and demonstrated highly sensitive hybrid surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates, which are grating-integrated gold nanograsses (GIGN) that are tip-selectively encapsulated by ZIF-8 nanospheres (GIGN/tip-ZIF). This unique structure is realized through the tip-selective modification of GIGN by polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), and then, the tips of the GIGN were encapsulated by ZIF-8 nanospheres. The ZIF-8 nanospheres can adsorb analyte molecules, resulting in the spatial overlap between the analyte molecules and the "hotspots" on the tips of GIGN. Such a unique GIGN/tip-ZIF hybrid SERS substrate exhibits high sensitivity and quantitative detection ability. The detection limits can reach as low as 10 M, and the relative standard deviation is 5.59% for 4-aminothiophenol (4-ATP). In a wide range of concentrations from 10 to 10 M, the SERS intensity and concentration relationship can be fitted as a sigmoidal curve with = 0.988. These indicate that the GIGN/tip-ZIF hybrid SERS substrates have broad applications in detecting toxic and harmful substances in food safety, disease diagnosis, and environmental monitoring.
我们提出并展示了高灵敏度的混合表面增强拉曼散射(SERS)基底,即光栅集成金纳米草(GIGN),其尖端被ZIF-8纳米球选择性包覆(GIGN/尖端-ZIF)。这种独特的结构是通过用聚乙烯吡咯烷酮(PVP)对GIGN进行尖端选择性修饰来实现的,然后,GIGN的尖端被ZIF-8纳米球包覆。ZIF-8纳米球可以吸附分析物分子,导致分析物分子与GIGN尖端的“热点”之间产生空间重叠。这种独特的GIGN/尖端-ZIF混合SERS基底具有高灵敏度和定量检测能力。检测限可低至10⁻¹² M,对4-氨基硫酚(4-ATP)的相对标准偏差为5.59%。在10⁻¹²至10⁻⁶ M的宽浓度范围内,SERS强度与浓度关系可拟合为一条相关系数为0.988的S形曲线。这些表明GIGN/尖端-ZIF混合SERS基底在食品安全、疾病诊断和环境监测中检测有毒有害物质方面具有广泛应用。
