FORMATION OF GOLD NANORODS AND GOLD NANOROD FILMS FOR SURFACE-ENHANCED RAMAN SCATTERING SPECTROSCOPY
Abstract
The formation of gold nanorods as well as thin films prepared via electrostatic deposition of gold nanorods has been investigated. The obtained gold nanorods films have been used as substrates for the surface-enhanced Raman scattering analysis of sulfur-free organic molecules mitoxantrone and malachite green as well as inorganic malachite microcrystals for the first time. The additional modification of films with L-cysteine allows one to significantly extend the use of gold nanorods for the surface-enhanced Raman scattering analysis.
