Gold nanostructured films of various thicknesses (15, 30, and 60 nm) are deposited over regular arrays of polystyrene nanospheres in an attempt to evaluate their potential as SERS-active substrates. Atomic force microscopy is used to topographically characterize the substrates as well as to ensure the thickness of the deposited gold films. The optical response of the prepared substrates recommends their use in SERS experiments with multiple laser lines from visible and NIR spectral domains. The assessment of the substrates' SERS activity is performed by using the 532, 633, and 830 nm excitation lines and different average enhancement factor (EF) values are obtained depending on the film thickness and employed laser line. The 60 nm gold nanostructured film generates the greatest local electromagnetic field confinement under NIR excitation and consequently gives rise to maximum SERS enhancement. The large tunability of surface plasmon excitation combined with the advantage of relatively high exhibited average EF values obtained under NIR excitation recommends these substrates as outstanding candidates for upcoming investigations of biological relevant molecules.
