Abstract
Ordered vertical silicon nanocones arrays coated with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs@SiNCs) are developed as surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-active substrate, which features good uniformity and reliable reproducibility of SERS signals. Label-free DNA at low concentrations (10−8 M) could be quantitatively analyzed via SERS using the AgNPs@SiNCs. The Raman peak at 732 cm−1 due to adenine breathing mode was selected as an endogenous Raman marker for quantitative detection of label-free DNA. The AgNPs@SiNCs as high-performance SERS-active substrates are attractive for surface enhancement mechanism investigation and biochemical sensing applications.
