[0037] Embodiment 2

[0038] The embodiment 2 uses a simple and low-cost continuous ion layer adsorption and reaction method to grow silver nanoflowers with high Raman spectrum signal sensitivity on filter paper through the redox reaction of silver nitrate and ascorbic acid without adding a complexing agent. The synthesized silver nanoflower Raman substrate has excellent SERS performance, and at the same time, the step of depositing silver nanoflowers on a solid substrate is omitted, which can greatly promote production.

[0039] Figure 2 The figure is a preparation flowchart of the silver nanoflower Raman substrate in the embodiment 2 of the present application.

[0040] As shown in the embodiment 2, the present application provides a preparation method of a solid-state surface-enhanced Raman scattering substrate, comprising the following steps: Figure 2

[0041] S1, preparing a silver nitrate solution and an ascorbic acid solution.

[0042] The concentration ratio of the silver nitrate solution and the ascorbic acid solution is 0.5-2. By adjusting the concentration ratio between the silver source solution and the reducing agent, the morphology of the solid-state surface-enhanced Raman scattering substrate can be changed, and the detection sensitivity of the solid-state surface-enhanced Raman scattering substrate can be improved.

[0043] Specifically, 10 milliliters of 0.1M silver nitrate (AgNO3) solution is taken as a silver source and placed in a beaker. Then, another beaker is taken, and 10 milliliters of 0.1M ascorbic acid (AA) solution is poured into the beaker as a reducing agent. The silver source is any one of silver nitrate, and the reducing agent is any one of ascorbic acid.

[0044] S2, preparing a dispersant, cutting filter paper, and generating silver nanoflowers on the filter paper through the continuous ion layer adsorption and reaction method, so as to prepare a deposition sample filter paper.

[0045] The dispersant is any one of ultrapure water or deionized water.

[0046] ​In this embodiment, two beakers were taken, and 10 milliliters of deionized water was respectively poured into each beaker, and a piece of 3x1 centimeter filter paper was cut for standby. The synthesis of a typical solid-state surface-enhanced Raman scattering substrate was carried out by fifteen times of continuous ion layer adsorption and reaction method at a reaction temperature; specifically, in a standard cycle, the filter paper was dipped in a beaker containing silver nitrate (AgNO3) solution, deionized water, ascorbic acid (AA) solution and deionized water in turn by using a pair of tweezers, and the filter paper was soaked in each beaker for 30 seconds, and finally the silver nanoflower with high Raman spectrum signal sensitivity was grown on the filter paper to prepare a deposited sample filter paper.

[0047] The reaction temperature of step S2 was controlled at 15-25℃, and the preferred reaction temperature was 15℃.

[0048] S3, after the deposited sample filter paper was naturally dried in a light-proof environment atmosphere, a silver nanoflower Raman substrate was prepared.

[0049] The prepared silver nanoflower Raman substrate was subjected to scanning electron microscope test, and the result was as shown in Figure 1 The sample was uniformly and densely distributed on the fibers of the filter paper, the overall morphology of the sample presented a spherical shape, and the surface had a secondary nanocrystalline structure, which presented a morphology similar to the nanoflower, and had a large number of hot spots.

[0050] Figure 3 is the energy dispersive X-ray spectrum of the silver nanoflower Raman substrate in Example 2 of the present application.

[0051] The prepared silver nanoflower Raman substrate was subjected to energy dispersive X-ray test, and the result was as shown in Figure 3 The silver nanoflower was mainly composed of silver and a small amount of impurities. An obvious carbon peak was observed near 0 keV, which may be derived from the organic impurities introduced by the conductive glue used for fixing the sample or the external pollutants in contact with the surface of the sample.

[0052] Figure 4 is the X-ray diffraction spectrum of the silver nanoflower Raman substrate in Example 2 of the present application.

[0053] The prepared silver nanoflower Raman substrate was subjected to X-ray color test, and the result was as shown in Figure 4 The diffraction peaks observed at 38.0°, 44.2°, 64.3°, 77.2° and 81.3° corresponded to the (111), (200), (220), (311) and (222) crystal planes of face-centered cubic (fcc) Ag, respectively.

[0054] Figure 5 is the ultraviolet-visible extinction spectrum of the silver nanoflower Raman substrate in Example 2 of the present application.

[0055] The silver nanoflower Raman substrate prepared was subjected to UV-visible test, and the results are shown in Figure 5 FIG. 1. A sharp peak appeared at 311 nm, and a wide peak appeared at 392 nm. The characteristic peak at 392 nm is the absorption peak of the flaky grains on the periphery of the silver nanoflower, because the thickness and lateral size of the flaky structure have a significant difference, resulting in a large half-peak width. The sharp and high-intensity absorption peak at 311 nm is the characteristic peak of the silver nanoflower.

[0056] The application also provides the use of the solid-state surface-enhanced Raman scattering substrate of the above-mentioned embodiments 1 and 2 in detecting rhodamine 6G.

[0057] Embodiment 3:

[0058] In this embodiment 3, the silver nanoflower Raman substrate prepared in the above-mentioned embodiment 2 was used to detect rhodamine 6G by solid-state surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and the detection method comprises the following steps:

[0059] S1, the rhodamine 6G solution to be detected was added dropwise to the surface of the silver nanoflower Raman substrate to obtain a Raman spectrum.

[0060] In this embodiment 3, 1 μL of each rhodamine 6G solution with different concentrations was added dropwise to the surface of the silver nanoflower Raman substrate prepared in the above-mentioned embodiment 2, and then SERS detection was performed by using inVia Qontor Raman instrument, the excitation intensity was set to 50 mV, the integration time was set to 1 s, 10 times of continuous testing were performed for each concentration, and the average value of the 10 data was used for statistics.

[0061] Figure 6 FIG. 3 is the SERS spectrum of the silver nanoflower Raman substrate in embodiment 3 for different concentrations of rhodamine 6G. FIG. b) is a partial enlarged view of FIG. a).

[0062] As shown in Figure 6 , when the silver nanoflower Raman substrate was used for SERS detection of rhodamine 6G solutions with different concentrations, the SERS signal still existed when the concentration of the rhodamine 6G solution was 10 -11 M, indicating that the silver nanoflower Raman substrate can produce strong SERS effect and has high sensitivity.

[0063] S2, from the Raman spectrum, 611 cm -1 , 772 cm -1 , 1181 cm -1 , 1310 cm -1 , 1362 cm -1 , 1509 cm -1 , 1574 cm -1 and 1649 cm -1The peak intensity at the characteristic peak is used for quantification.

[0064] Figure 7 SERS response graph for the quantitative analysis of Rhodamine 6G molecules by the quantitative analysis method of the silver nanoflower Raman substrate in Example 3 of the present application.

[0065] Figure 7 The relationship graph between the SERS intensity of the Raman characteristic peaks at 611 cm -1 , 772 cm -1 , 1181 cm -1 and 1362 cm -1 of the silver nanoflower Raman substrate and the logarithm of the concentration of Rhodamine 6G was plotted, and the logarithm of the concentration of Rhodamine 6G was linearly regressed with the SERS intensity of the above four Raman characteristic peaks, and the fitting coefficient (R2) was taken as the measurement standard of the linearity.

[0066] As shown in Figure 7 , the R2 at 772 cm -1 reached 0.89707, and the R2 values at the other three characteristic peaks also exceeded 0.8, showing good correlation. This shows that with the increase of the concentration of Rhodamine 6G molecules, the intensity of the Raman scattering signal almost increases in direct proportion.
