Facile Synthesis of Palladium Nanorods: Self-Assembly into Thin 2D Layers for SERS Sensing
Abstrak
This study presents a simple, high-throughput synthesis approach for fabricating palladium (Pd) nanomaterials with anisotropic shapes, specifically Pd nanorods, via a self-assembly process. This method avoids the use of reducing agents, surface functionalization, and stabilizing agents. Palladium–poly(methyl methacrylate) (Pd-PMMA) nanocomposites were successfully synthesized using a vapor-induced phase separation (VIPS) method. The formation of Pd nanorods was controlled by tuning key parameters, such as the Pd precursor concentration, choice of solvents, and spin coating speed. Notably, the resulting nanorods exhibited high reproducibility and ultrasensitivity as a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) platform, achieving an enhancement factor of approximately 1.8 × 10<sup>5</sup>, despite the relatively weak plasmonic properties of Pd. This work represents a novel, facile strategy for Pd nanorod synthesis, offering new potential for the design of Pd-based nanosensors for chemical sensing applications.
