Abstract

A simple method for the preparation of surface-enhanced Raman-active gold films is reported. The method involves sputter coating of gold to about 2000 Å thickness on oxidized aluminium foils which yield surfaces of sub-micrometre roughness. Self-assembled monolayers of thiols grown on these substrates yield good-quality Raman spectra. Monolayers with different functionalities have also been characterized by Raman scattering.
