Abstract:
A simple method is developed for the direct synthesis of aggregated silver nanoparticles (a-AgNPs), which show strong and wavelength-tunable localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR). Three a-AgNPs (532-a-AgNPs, 633-a-AgNPs and 787-a-AgNPs) exhibiting the maximum LSPR wavelength coinciding well with those of lasers commonly used in SERS detection (532, 633 and 785 nm) are obtained. Thus, the three a-AgNPs possess abundant plasmonic hotspots under the irradiation of corresponding laser. Moreover, the three a-AgNPs show robust stability in water, and can be developed into liquid substrates directly for SERS determination. All the three substrates (532-sub, 633-sub, and 787-sub) show excellent SERS activity to 4-mercaptobenzoic acid (4-MBA) due to the synergistic effect of strong electromagnetic enhancement (EM) and chemical enhancement (CM) effects. The obtained 787-sub is further applied for the determination of thiram in juices. The low detection limit of 10 ppb and outstanding recoveries of 91.75–109.92 % suggest substantially the reliability and practicality of the developed SERS substrates in food safety detection. © 2025 Elsevier B.V.
