Abstract

The homogeneous surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) active hot spots on a SERS substrate is the most crucial factor in ensuring their application as reproducible and ultrasensitive sensing platforms. In this paper, we report on a simply shaking-assisted liquid–liquid (water-chloroform) interfacial assembly process for fabricating aligned Ag nanowire (AgNW) bilayer films on solid substrates. A scalable fabrication process can be easily realized by using a large size of container. These AgNW bilayer films can be used as ideal SERS active substrates for chemical and biomolecular detection with highly sensitivity and excellent reproducibility. Significantly, sensitive and quantitative detection of carbaryl with a detection limit of 0.1 ppm using these SERS substrates to demonstrate potential applications for environmental pollutant analysis.
