摘要
We report the hierarchical assembly of Au nanoparticles on carboxylized carbon nanotubes(c-CNTs)through Cu^(2+) coordination. This route is facile and green, and can easily control the loading density of Au nanoparticles. The c-CNT matrix ensures uniform distribution of Au nanoparticles, which is particularly important for the enrichment of hot spots while preventing their serious agglomeration. Moreover, the cCNT matrix also contributes to the electromagnetic enhancement due to its surface plasmon resonance,and the chemical enhancement due to the adsorption of the target molecules. The resulting Au@c-CNT nanohybrids exhibit a remarkable synergy in SERS compared to neat Au nanoparticles.
