Abstract
In this talk I will present our recent research on the design and preparation of three-dimensional (3D) hierarchical metamaterials and two-dimensional (2D) hierarchical metasurfaces as novel SERS substrates with ultrahigh sensitivity and reproducibility. The former substrate consists of close-packed arrays of nanoholes and uniformly distributed mesopores over the bulk and the second comprised of sub-wavelength-sized conical nanopores and sub-5-nm nanogrooves. Both substrates employ a cascaded field enhancement mechanism, leading to the ultrahigh sensitivity, and have a (quasi)periodic arrangement of plasmonic near-field hot-spots, ensuring excellent structural and signal reproducibility. In particular, the latter substrate is highly mechanically flexible, allowing for extreme adaptability to complex working conditions such as build-in real-time monitoring of trace level molecules.
