Abstract
The highly ordered silver nanowire arrays were fabricated successfully by an easily produced and handled approach with the assistance of nanoporous anodized aluminum oxide(AAO) template. The silver nanowires with uniform diameters are highly ordered and parallel to each other. A broad UV-visible absorption band with a center at 401nm of silver nanowire arrays were detected. Optimized surface enhanced Raman scattering(SERS) signals of crystal violet molecules(CV) were recorded. It was found that the substrate exhibits strong enhancement properties due to the surface plasma resonance(SPR) of highly ordered silver nanowire arrays. The enhancement factor was calculated as 3.5×106. In addition, the results offered a simple technique in preparing highly ordered nanowire arrays which can be used as negative-refractive-index material as well as excellent SERS substrate.
