  • Leveraging the photothermal effect generated by the FP cavity to drive galvanic replacement reactions.
  • Preparation of SERS chips using the photothermal effect within the DMCW structure.

    • Main Results:

    • The DMCW facilitates efficient light coupling and generates an oscillating wave, forming an FP cavity.
    • The photothermal effect induced by the DMCW promotes galvanic replacement reactions.
    • Fabricated SERS chips exhibit improved uniformity, stronger activity, and higher sensitivity compared to conventional methods.
    • The morphology of SERS substrates created via DMCW is more elaborate than those from surface plasmon polariton waveguides.

    Conclusions:

    • The DMCW effectively converts light energy into thermal energy.
    • This photothermal effect provides a viable pathway for fabricating advanced SERS chips.
    • The DMCW-based approach offers a superior method for creating SERS substrates with enhanced properties.
