Optimization of new active surfaces based on plasmonic nanoparticle assemblies for SERS, SERRS and surface-modified luminescence studies of selected molecules
Sutrová, Veronika ; Vlčková, Blanka (advisor) ; Procházka, Marek (referee)
Two types of 3-dimensional (3D) Ag nanosponge aggregates were prepared and tested as samples for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and as active surfaces for surface- enhanced luminescence. 3D Ag nanosponge aggregates were assembled from 2D fused fractal aggregates (D = 1.87 ± 0.02) prepared by modification of Ag nanoparticle (NP) hydrosol resulting from the reduction of AgNO3 by NH2OH·HCl. For SERS measurements, 3D Ag nanosponge aggregates with incorporated [Ru(bpy)3]2+ cations and chloride anions were prepared and overlayed by a thin layer of aqueous phase. For SEL measurements, the 3D Ag nanosponge aggregates were assembled from fused fractal aggregates of chloride- modified Ag NPs. After preparation the active surface was overlayed by a 1×10-5 M aqueous solution of [Ru(bpy)3]2+ . The SERRS (1×10-15 M) and SER(R)S (1×10-14 M) limits of detection of [Ru(bpy)3]2+ determined at 445 and 532 nm excitations, respectively, correspond to the single molecule level of the complex detection. Its achievement is attributed to a large electromagnetic mechanism enhancement experienced by [Ru(bpy)3]2+ incorporated in "hot spots", an efficient localization of "hot spots" in the 3D aggregate to the focus of the laser beam in micro-Raman spectral measurements and to a molecular resonance contribution to the...
