Pyridyl-terminated organic surface was created by self-assembling p-mercaptopyridine (p-MPy) onto sputtered gold substrates, on which well-defined gold nanoparticulate films were formed with a submonolayer coverage, as revealed by the tapping mode atomic force microscopic (AFM) observations. Thus-prepared gold nanoparticulate films were shown to be active for surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS),...
A simple method for attaching gold nanoparticles to silicon surfaces with self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) is described. Firstly, the silicon wafers were cleaned by a slightly modified RCA method, producing a hydrophilic and smooth surface, as revealed by the small contact angle with water (~5 o ) and the small RMS value (0.2 nm) for surface roughness given by atomic force microscopy (AFM)...
