Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Nanotechnology
  • Analytical Chemistry

Background:

  • Developing highly sensitive and stable substrates for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is crucial for trace analyte detection.
  • Existing SERS methods often struggle with random analyte distribution during droplet evaporation, limiting sensitivity and reproducibility.
  • Patterned substrates offer potential for analyte pre-concentration and enhanced SERS signals.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To fabricate a novel SERS substrate using patterned silicon (Si) with inverted pyramid micro-pits and few-layer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2).
  • To investigate the analyte confinement and SERS enhancement capabilities of the fabricated MoS2/patterned Si substrate.
  • To evaluate the substrate's limit of detection and stability for Rhodamine 6G (R6G) detection.

Main Methods:

  • Fabrication of patterned Si substrates with inverted pyramid micro-pits using semiconductor processing.
  • Deposition of Molybdenum trioxide (MoO3) followed by two-stage sulfurization to grow few-layer MoS2.
  • Application of a longitudinal electric field during dropwise titration of Rhodamine 6G (R6G) solution.
  • Characterization using Raman mapping to assess analyte confinement and SERS signal intensity.

Main Results:

  • Raman mapping confirmed effective confinement of R6G molecules within the micro-pits under a 100 mV electric field.
  • The MoS2/patterned Si SERS substrate exhibited an intensity approximately 274 times greater than planar Si.
  • A limit of detection for R6G as low as 10^-5 M was achieved, demonstrating high sensitivity.
  • Enhanced detection stability and reproducibility were observed due to controlled analyte distribution.

Conclusions:

  • The developed MoS2/patterned Si SERS substrate effectively addresses the challenge of random analyte distribution.
  • The combination of patterned Si micro-pits and few-layer MoS2 significantly enhances SERS detection sensitivity and stability.
  • This approach offers a promising platform for highly sensitive and reliable trace chemical detection.
