Ag NANOPARTICLE-COATED ZEOLITE AS SURFACE ENHANCED RAMAN SCATTERING SUBSTRATE FOR 2-ACETYL-2-THIAZOLINE DETECTION
Keywords:
Y-type zeolite, Ag nanoparticle, SERS, Raman spectroscopyAbstract
Surface enhanced Raman scattering or spectroscopy (SERS) is one of the techniques that have a high potential to enhance the Raman signal used to identify a low concentration of organic chemicals. In this work, zeolite was used as an adsorbent and the Ag nanoparticles were created on top of the zeolite surface for SERS spectroscopy. The morphology of the zeolite and the SERS chip was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The Ag element on the zeolite surface was confirmed by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) spectrum and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). The average size of Ag nanoparticle was around 14 nm suggested by SEM. Oxidizing agents were eliminated from the SERS chip by a burning process, and the charge on the SERS chips surface was cleared by plasma surface treatment, using 2-acetyl-2-thiazoline (2AT), as an organic chemical. Raman enhancement of SERS was analyzed using Fourier transform Raman spectroscopy (FT Raman). The results demonstrated the potential ability of SERS with burning process to enhance the Raman signal of 2AT at 792 and 1,637 cm-1 of Raman vibrational bands.
