摘要
We demonstrate an average surface-enhanced Raman scattering enhancement on the order of 10 8 from benzenethiol molecules using self-assembled, macroscopic, and tunable gold nanosphere monolayers on non-templated substrates. The self-assembly of the nanosphere monolayers uses a simple and efficient technique that allows for the creation of a high-density, chemically functionalized gold nanosphere monolayers with enhancement factors comparable to those produced using top-down fabrication techniques. These films may provide an approach for the future development of portable chemical/biological sensors.
