Multifunctional magnetic Fe3O4/Cu2O-Ag nanocomposites with high sensitivity for SERS detection and efficient visible light-driven photocatalytic degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)

Jie Huang et al.

Summary: In this study, a novel multifunctional nanocomposites (NCs) were developed for ultrasensitive surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) detection and visible light-driven photocatalytic degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The NCs exhibited excellent SERS sensitivity attributed to the synergistic interplay of electromagnetic and chemical enhancement. The optimal SERS substrates showed low limits of detection for various PAHs and could effectively detect PAHs in actual soil environment. Additionally, a simple SERS method was used to monitor the photocatalytic process of PAHs. The magnetic multifunctional NCs allowed for the recovery and reuse, maintaining their outstanding SERS and photocatalytic performance even after eight cycles. This study provides a unique idea for integrating ultrasensitive SERS detection and efficient photocatalytic degradation of PAHs, with promising prospects in environmental protection.

Flexible nano-cloth-like Ag cluster@rGO with ultrahigh SERS sensitivity for capture-optimization-detection due to effective molecule-substrate interactions

Yanying Cui et al.

Summary: Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technique is widely used for trace molecule detection. In this study, a Ag cluster@rGO composite nanostructure was developed to achieve ultrahigh sensitivity of SERS. The structure of Ag clusters and the interaction with target molecules were investigated using Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations and finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulations. The results showed that the composite system exhibited strong electromagnetic field enhancements at the edges and interstices of Ag clusters, resulting in efficient charge transfer and enhanced SERS sensitivity.
