The trade-off relationship between cost and performance is a major challenge in the development of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) sensors for practical applications. We propose a roll-to-roll system with incorporated vacuum sputtering to manufacture Ag-coated nanodimples (Ag/NDs) on A4-scale films in a single step. The Ag/ND SERS platforms were prepared via O2 ion beam sputtering and Ag sputtering deposition. The concave three-dimensional spaces in the Ag/NDs functioned as hotspots, and their optimal fabrication conditions were investigated with two variables: moving speed and Ag thickness. The entire process was automated, which resulted in highly consistent optical responses (i.e., relative standard deviation of ∼10%). The activation of plasmonic hotspots was demonstrated by electric-field profiles calculated via the finite-difference time-domain method. The wavelength dependency of the Ag/ND platforms was also examined by dark-field microscopy. The results indicate that the developed engineering technique for the large-scale production of Ag/ND plasmonic chips would likely be competitive in the commercial market. |
