GALVANIC-CELL-REACTION-DRIVEN DEPOSITION OF LARGE-AREA AU NANOURCHIN ARRAYS FOR SURFACE-ENHANCED RAMAN SCATTERING

Galvanic-Cell-Reaction-Driven Deposition of Large-Area Au Nanourchin Arrays for Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering

Here we report a low-cost synthetic approach for the direct fabrication of large-area Au nanourchin arrays on indium tin oxide (ITO) via a facile galvanic-cell-reaction-driven deposition in an aqueous solution of chloroauric acid and poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP).The homogeneous Au nanourchins are composed of abundant sharp nanotips, which can serv
