The SERS substrate of the Au NPs@GO film is fabricated via a facile electrostatic self-assembly method.
The Au NPs@GO films with different layers construction and surface compositions are investigated.
The SERS activities of different substrates are investigated using Rhodamine 6G as the probing molecules.
Results of assembly cycles influence on SERS performances of the Au NPs@GO films are presented.
The Au NPs@GO films present favorable reproducibility and high stability under ambient environment.
