AuNPs/COFs as a new type of SERS substrate for sensitive recognition of polyaromatic hydrocarbons

Abstract

In this work, Au nanoparticles self-assembled with covalent-organic frameworks via a 1 min process at room temperature, and the obtained nanocomposite was employed as a new type of surface-enhanced Raman scattering sensor for the recognition of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons with high sensitivity.
