研究目的
To present a new strategy for fabricating optical fiber surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) probes with high-performance remote sensing capabilities, focusing on sensitivity, reproducibility, and stability.
研究成果
The study successfully demonstrated a new route to prepare highly sensitive fiber SERS probes based on AgNPs via in situ growth on MPTMS-silanized fiber taper. The probes showed excellent SERS performance with high sensitivity, good reproducibility, and strong stability, indicating great potential for applications in chemical analysis, bioassays, and environmental protection.
研究不足
The study does not explicitly mention limitations, but potential areas for optimization could include further improving the sensitivity for detecting biomolecules like L-cysteine and extending the applicability to a wider range of analytes.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved the fabrication of SERS probes through thiol functionalization of silica fiber taper and in situ nucleation and growth of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs).
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
A multimode silica-based optical fiber was used, and 4-aminothiophenol (4-ATP) was chosen as a model analyte.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment included a scanning electron microscope (SEM, Quanta-200, FEI, USA), transmission electron microscope (TEM, JEOL-2010), and a portable commercial Raman spectrometer (MiniRam, B&W TEK Opto-electronics, USA). Materials included hydrofluoric acid (40% HF), 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTMS), and silver nitrate (AgNO3).
4：3).
Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
4. Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow: The optical fiber was chemically etched, hydroxyl-treated, and silanized with MPTMS. AgNPs were grown on the thiol-functionalized fiber taper via hydrothermal synthesis. SERS measurements were performed using a 785 nm semiconductor laser.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
SERS spectra were analyzed for sensitivity, reproducibility, and stability. The enhancement factor (EF) was estimated to assess SERS enhancement ability.
