Comparison of SERS effectiveness of copper substrates prepared by different methods: what are the values of enhancement factors?

Abstract: Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy is an analytical method for the detection of low amounts of analytes adsorbed on an appropriate coinage metal (Au, Ag, Cu) surface. Generally, the values of the enhancement factor are the highest on silver, lower on gold and relatively very low on copper. In this study, we have focused on the estimation of the enhancement factors of copper surface/substrates formed by different preparation procedures. The SERS activity of large electrochemically prepared su… Show more

“…26 Recently, Wu et al have also investigated the electrooxidation of 4-ABT on gold 4 electrodes by means of density functional theory (DFT) providing mechanistic insight into this reaction at metal electrodes. 34 On the other hand, Dendisova-Vyskovska et al 35 have used the spectra of adsorbed 4-ABT to evaluate the effectiveness of SERS on different Cu substrates at 1064-nm excitation using a FT-Raman spectrometer. However, no evidence of formation of 4,4′-DMAB was found under these experimental conditions as indicated by the absence of bands around 1142, 1390, and 1432 cm −1 .…”

“…The intense absorption of the CuO x /Al 2 O 3 catalyst implies a high utilization efficiency of solar energy. The CuO x /Al 2 O 3 catalyst exhibits a maximum absorption peak at about 585 nm which greatly enhanced the absorption of visible‐light and the peak is a characteristic surface plasmon resonance peak of the reported Cu nanoparticles; additionally, the UV absorption part of the CuO x /Al 2 O 3 catalyst (inset of Figure C) is similar with the corresponding region of Cu 2 O (as shown in Figure S8), suggesting the dominant contribution of Cu 2 O, which is in accordance with XPS results (Figure S4B,C). The Cu 2 O is a typical p ‐type semiconductor (band gap of 2.0–2.3 eV) with high carrier mobility and can exhibit photocatalytic activity .…”
