Abstract:Introduction: This study focuses on the detection of rhodamine-6G using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) on gold nanostructures (AuNS) of different sizes. Ion beam irradiation has been carried out to tune the size of AuNS and investigate the underlying mechanisms of sputtering and diffusion that govern their growth. Additionally, the study established a correlation between fractal growth parameters, water contact angle, and SERS detection of R6G. The results of this study offer new insights into the me… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
