SERS-active Ag/Au bimetallic nanoalloys on Si/SiOx
Abstract.
Nanoalloys are clusters formed of two or more metallic elements and are of interest for applications
in catalysis, spectroscopy, photonics, electronics, and magnetism. The hybridization of the individual
plasmonic absorptions of different alloyed metals allows for plasmon tunability and a better coupling
of plasmon-excitation line, giving rise to significant increases in the enhancement factor for surfaceenhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy. Here we report simple fabrication procedures for the
preparation of Ag/Au nanoalloys on Si/SiOx substrates, with tunable plasmon resonances. The mechanism
and kinetic of the nanoalloy formation and its optical properties were studied by SEM, XPS, SPR, and
SERS.
