Abstract

We demonstrate a dual-mode sensing platform based on porous silicon (PSi) substrates coated with colloidal gold (Au) nanoparticles (NPs). This Au-PSi composite structure supports both molecular fingerprinting via surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and quantification of molecular binding via reflectance measurements. Reflectance shifts of 7-10 nm in the infrared region were observed in the case of adsorbing benzenethiol or antioxidant glutathione molecules on the surface of Au NPs. Subsequent SERS measurements showed unique identification for both molecules and provided a < 1 μM and < 1 mM detection resolution for benzenethiol and glutathione, respectively.
