Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) substrates based on metal/semiconductors have attracted much attention due to their excellent photocatalytic activity and SERS performance. However, they generally exhibit low light utilization and photocatalytic efficiencies. Herein, molybdenum disulfide coated titanium dioxide modified with gold nanoparticles (MoS@TiO@Au) as a heterojunction-based recyclable SERS platform was fabricated for the efficient determination of fungicides. Results showed that the MoS@TiO@Au platform could rapidly degrade 90.7% crystal violet in 120 min under solar light irradiation and enable reproducible and sensitive SERS analysis of three fungicides (methylene blue, malachite green, and crystal violet) and in-situ monitor of the photodegradation process. The platform could also be reused five times due to the unique integrated merits of the MoS@TiO@Au heterojunction. Meanwhile, experiments in determining methylene blue in prawn protein solution achieved a limit of detection of 1.509 μg/L. Therefore, it is hoped that this work could expand detection applications of photocatalytic materials.

In this research, we fabricated an innovative NiO/CN/Ag composite through the straightforward electrostatic assembly of Ag nanoparticles and g-CN sheets onto NiO nanoflowers. This composite enables both surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) detection and photo-degradation of pesticides. The results reveal NiO/CN/Ag can quantitatively detect thiram (TRM) and diquat dibromide (DQDB) in water, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 10 M, and also exhibit outstanding photo-degradation efficiency, exceeding 95 % for TRM and DQDB within 90 min under simulated sunlight.

This study presents the development of highly efficient Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) substrates through femtosecond (fs) laser processing of crystalline silicon (Si), resulting in mountain-like microstructures. These microstructures, when decorated with gold nanoparticles (Au NPs), exhibit remarkable SERS performance due to the creation of concentrated hotspots. The enhanced Raman signals originate from the excitation of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of the Au NPs and the multi-scale rough morphology of the Si substrates.

The escalating crisis of nanoplastic pollution in water and food products demands the development of novel methodologies for detection and recycling. Despite various techniques available, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is emerging as a highly efficient technique for the trace detection of micro/nanoplastics. However, the development of highly reproducible and stable, flexible SERS substrates that can be used for sensitive detection in environmental medium remains a challenge.
