Abstract
A method of fabricating polypyrrole-coated silver particles having a core-shell structure via in-situ oxidative polymerization using silver nanoparticles and pyrrole monomers in the presence of an oxidizing agent. A surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) active substrate comprising the polypyrrole-coated silver particles is also disclosed. The surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) active substrate is demonstrated to facilitate the detection and measurement of surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectra of analytes with increased Raman signal intensity.
