Abstract
Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a promising technique for trace determination. More and more attention is focused on hybrid SERS substrates, which coupled with noble metal nanoparticles and carbon-based materials. Herein, expanded graphite (EG) is used to prepare EG-covered support by ultrasonic washing and filtration. Such support is flexible and can be cut into any shape. And the contact angle (θe) for Au nanorods (Au NRs) sol on the EG-covered support was 108.2° and the hydrophobic surface is helpful for Au NRs to construct 'hot spots' during evaporation. The limits of detection (LOD) for crystal violet (CV), thiram, malachite green (MG) and methylene blue (MB) were as low as 1 ppb, 50 ppb, 1 ppb and 1 ppb, respectively. Moreover, a fast and convenient 'paste-sampling' method could be employed for trace contaminants on real samples, because EG-based Au NRs substrate is of flexibility and porosity. Thus, CV residue on shrimp could be determined lower than 1 ppb and thiram residue on grapes could be identified lower than 50 ppb. In addition to high sensitivity, the stability of EG-based Au NRs substrate is also very good. Even after acid/alkali pretreatment (pH = 4∼10) or 30 min of thermal treatment (T = 20∼100 °C), the enhancement of the substrate remained stable. What's more, the substrate could be stored as long as 30 days. The highly stable, sensitive, cost-effective and easy-to-produce EG-based Au NRs substrates exhibit a great potential to promote application of SERS for routine analysis.

Abstract
Silver nanostructure decorated-titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanocomposite systems with their unique characteristics provide extraordinary performance in various applications including surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), and photocatalysis. Despite the recent progress, novel, simple, effective, low-cost, reducing and stabilizing agent-free, and easy-to-tune approaches are heavily demanded for the preparation of these nanocomposites. In this context, we propose the fabrication of silver nanostructure decorated TiO2 nanowires (TiO2 NWs) through a thin interphase layer of the polymer of 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl-l-alanine (PLDOPA). In the first step, TiO2 NWs were synthesized through the hydrothermal method and then a conformal thin film of PLDOPA was deposited onto the TiO2 NWs (TiO2@PLDOPA) by oxidative polymerization of l-DOPA. Having various functional groups including catechol and amine, the PLDOPA thin-film reduced the silver ions onto the TiO2 NWs and stabilized the resultant nanocomposites without the employment of any surfactant, reducing agent, and seed material. By simply tuning the amount of silver ions, we could manipulate the size, morphology, and interparticle distance of silver nanostructures decorated onto the TiO2@PLDOPA colloidal composite system (TiO2@PLDOPA@Ag NP). The TiO2@PLDOPA@Ag nanocomposite systems provided unique properties as an ideal SERS platform and photocatalyst. The optimized TiO2@PLDOPA@Ag nanosystem demonstrated a high SERS activity, reproducibility, and self-cleaning property with an enhancement factor of 5.1 × 105. As a photocatalyst, the TiO2@PLDOPA@Ag NP systems provided remarkable performance under visible light irradiation in the catalytic degradation of methylene blue.

Abstract
Core-shell gold nanorod (AuNR)@silver (Ag) nanostructures with their unique properties have gained enormous interest and are widely utilized in various applications including sensor systems, catalytic reactions, diagnosis, and therapy. Despite the recent progress, simple, effective, low-cost, and easy-to-tune strategies are heavily required to fabricate these nanoparticles (NP) systems. For this, we propose the employment of the polymer of 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl-L-alanine (L-DOPA) as a ligand molecule. A conformal thin layer of polymer of L-DOPA (PLDOPA) with its various functional groups enabled the reduction of silver ions onto the AuNRs and stabilization of the resultant NPs without using any surfactant, reducing agent, and seed material. The shape and growth model of the AuNR@Ag nanostructures was manipulated by simply tuning the amount of silver ions. This procedure created different NP morphologies ranging from concentric to acentric/island shape core-shell nanostructures. Also, even at the highest Ag deposition, the PLDOPA layer is still conformally present onto the Au@Ag core-shell NRs. The unique properties of NP systems provided remarkable characteristics in surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, catalytic activity, and cell viability tests.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) with fast and intuitive property has been extensively utilized in the field of food safety. Here, we demonstrated a novel noble metal-polymer hybrid film as a SERS substrate for food fungicide analysis. Benefiting from its transparency and flexibility, poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) film was chosen as a versatile supporting matrix to grow gold nanobushes (Au NBs) through a seed-mediated process. The as-prepared AuNB-PDMS hybrid film performed satisfactorily in testing 4-nitrothiophenol (4NTP) and exhibited an enhancement factor (EF) of 2.56 × 106. Moreover, the high sensitivity and elastic properties make the hybrid film a promising substrate in practical detection. Hence, the in situ sensing of TBZ, carbaryl, and their mixture was finally realized using the developed hybrid film, which exhibited higher sensitivity than that obtained by the swabbing method. This high-performance SERS substrate based on the flexible and transparent AuNB-PDMS hybrid film has great potential applications in the fast in situ monitoring of biochemical molecules.

Abstract
Graphenic substrates (GS), such as reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and graphene oxide (GO), are 2D materials known for their unique physicochemical properties such as their ability to enhance vibrational spectroscopic signals and quench the fluorescence of adsorbed molecules. These properties provide an opportunity to develop nanostructured GS-based systems for detecting and identifying different analytes with high sensitivity and reliability through molecular spectroscopic techniques. This work evaluated the capacities of different GS to interact with a highly fluorescent compound, thereby changing its optical emission response (fluorescence quenching) and amplifying its vibrational signal, which is the base of graphene-enhanced Raman scattering (GERS). To test these properties, we used a derivative of highly fluorescent BODIPY (BP) compounds, which cover a wide range of applications from solar energy conversion to photodynamic cancer therapy. GS prepared by using the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique allowed us to quench the fluorescence emission of BP and improve its Raman spectroscopy detection limit due to the GERS effect. These results were interpreted in light of the π-π interactions taking place between the Csp2 domains of GS and the aromatic core of the BP fluorophore.

Abstract
The controlled deposition of nanoparticles onto 3-D nanostructured films is still facing challenges due to the uncontrolled aggregation of colloidal nanoparticles. In the context of this study, a simple yet effective approach is demonstrated to decorate the silver nanoparticles (AgNP) onto the 3-D and anisotropic gold nanorod arrays (GNAs) through a bioinspired polydopamine (PDOP) coating to fabricate surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) platforms. Since the Raman reporter molecules (methylene blue, MB, 10 µM) were not adsorbed directly on the surface of the plasmonic material, a remarkable decrease in SERS signals was detected for the PDOP-coated GNAs (GNA@PDOP) platforms. However, after uniform and well-controlled AgNP decoration on the GNA@PDOP (GNA@PDOP@AgNP), huge enhancement was observed in SERS signals from the resultant platform due to the synergistic action which originated from the interaction of GNAs and AgNPs. I also detected that PDOP deposition time (i.e., PDOP film thickness) is the dominant parameter that determines the SERS activity of the final system and 30 min of PDOP deposition time (i.e., 3 nm of PDOP thickness) is the optimum value to obtain the highest SERS signal. To test the reproducibility of GNA@PDOP@AgNP platforms, relative standard deviation (RSD) values for the characteristic peaks of MB were found to be less than 0.17, demonstrating the acceptable reproducibility all over the proposed platform. This report suggests that GNA@PDOP@AgNP system may be used as a robust platform for practical SERS applications.

Abstract
Flexible substrates have been proposed for daily-life applications in SERS detection due to the prominent sample collection properties such as they can be wrapped around non-planar object surface. Combining the noble metals with polymers, flexible SERS substrates could be fabricated with advantages of light weight, transparency and high SERS sensitivity. Herein, we prepare a gold nanorods (AuNRs)/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) film as flexible SERS substrate by self-assembling a uniformly AuNRs array layer on PMMA template. This AuNRs/PMMA film performs excellently on thiram trace detection with the lowest detection concentration of 0.5 ppb. The fabricated substrates were applied for practical detection with cucumber by directly covering the AuNRs/PMMA flexible film on the target surface. Furthermore, the high SERS sensitivity as well as great reproducibility present a wide range of prospections for the further application of non-plane surface.

Abstract
Surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has been widely used in detection of food safety due to the nondestructive examination property. Here, we reported a flexible SERS film based on a polymer-immobilized gold nanorod polymer metafilm. Polystyrene-polyisoprene-polystyrene (SIS), a transparent and flexible, along with having excellent elasticity, polymer, was chosen as the main support of gold nanorods. A simple phase transfer progress was adopted to mix the gold nanorods with the polymer, which can further be used in most water-insoluble polymers. The SERS film performed satisfactorily while being tested in a series of standard Raman probes, like crystal violet (CV) and malachite green (MG). Moreover, the excellent reproducibility and elastic properties make the film a promising substrate in practical detection. Hence, the MG detection on the fish surface and trace thiram detection on orange pericarp were inspected with detection results of 1 × 10-10 and 1 × 10-6 M, which were below the demand of the National standard of China, exactly matching the realistic application requirements.
