Abstract:
We report a new chip-integrated recyclable SERS substrate, achieved by photochemical deposition of silver nanoparticles onto titanium dioxide (TiO2) thin film. Facilitated by the photocatalytic activity of titanium dioxide the SERS substrate can be recycled for multiple analysis. This enables quasi-real time detection of various compounds in an automated and reusable DMF-SERS platform.
