Nanostructured substrate with nanoparticles fabricated by femtosecond laser for surface-enhanced Raman scattering

A simple and fast method to fabricate nanostructured substrates with silver nanoparticles over a large area for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is reported. The method involves two steps: 1) dip the substrate into a silver nitrate solution for a few minutes, remove the substrate from the solution, and then air dry and 2) process the silver nitrate coated substrate by femtosecond (fs) l...

One-step fabrication of nanostructures by femtosecond laser for surface-enhanced Raman scattering.

This paper reports an efficient fabrication of nanostructures on silicon substrates for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). Silicon wafer substrates in the aqueous solution of silver nitrate were machined by the femtosecond laser direct writing to achieve simultaneously in one-step the generation of grating-like nanostructures on the surface of the substrate and the formation of silver na...

Fabrication of Metal Nanoparticles by Pulsed Laser Ablation in Supercritical CO2

Fabrication of nano-structured materials has been developed by performing pulsed laser ablation of copper, gold, and silver plates in supercritical CO2. The metal nano-structured particles were successfully generated with allowing the selective generation of clusters. Laser ablation was performed with an excitation wavelength of 532 nm. On the basis of the experimental result, both surface of a...

Fabrication and Optical Characterization of Silicon Nanostructure Arrays by Laser Interference Lithography and Metal-Assisted Chemical Etching

In this paper metal-assisted chemical etching has been applied to pattern porous silicon regions and silicon nanohole arrays in submicron period simply by using positive photoresist as a mask layer. In order to define silicon nanostructures, Metal-assisted chemical etching (MaCE) was carried out with silver catalyst. Provided solution (or materiel) in combination with laser interference lithogr...
