Surface enhanced Raman scattering silica substrate fast fabrication by femtosecond laser pulses

We report the fabrication of surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) fused silica glass substrates using fast femtosecond-laser (fs-laser) scan, followed by silver chemical plating. A cross-section enhancement factor (EF) of 2.5×10 6 , evaluated by Rhodamine 6G (10 −7  M solution), was obtained....

Zusammenfassung:We report the fabrication of surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) fused silica glass substrates using fast femtosecond-laser (fs-laser) scan, followed by silver chemical plating. A cross-section enhancement factor (EF) of 2.5×10 6 , evaluated by Rhodamine 6G (10 −7  M solution), was obtained. The Raman mapping indicated a good uniformity over the fs-laser scanned area. The dimension and pattern of the SERS activated region can be conveniently controlled by laser 2D scanning, potentially enabling integration of SERS into a high-order optical–chemical analysis system on a glass chip.
