  • SUBSTRATE WITH MAGNETIC LAYER FOR SERS, METHODS FOR THEIR PREPARATION AND USES THEREOF
    Publication number: 20220011234
    Abstract: The present application relates, for example, to substrates for surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), to methods for their preparation and to uses of such SERS substrates in methods for the detection of an analyte in a sample. The SERS substrates of the present application comprise a support material, a layer of a SERS-active metal on the support material, and a layer of magnetically active nanoparticles on the layer of the SERS-active metal. The methods of preparing such SERS substrates comprise depositing a layer of a SERS-active metal on a support material, and depositing a layer of magnetically active nanoparticles on the layer of the SERS-active metal.
