Optoplasmonic hybrid structures composed of photonic and plasmonic elements with excellent optical properties are of great significance for the development of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) substrates. In this work, the optoplasmonic hybrid structure is composed of SiO 2 microsphere and two-dimensional (2D) plasmonic- metal organic frameworks (MOF) film. Among them, the 2D plasmonic-MOF film is prepared from silver nanoparticles encapsulated by zeolitic imidazole acid framework (AgNP@ZIF-8) by self-assembly method. This optoplasmonic hybrid structure with gas adsorption properties could be used as a SERS substrate for 4-Mercaptophenol (4-MP) gas detection. Experimental data show that this substrate is dependent on the thickness of the ZIF shell and the size of the SiO 2 microspheres . In addition, it is confirmed by the electromagnetic field simulation of finite-difference time-domain method (FDTD). The optoplasmonic hybrid microstructures exhibit good uniformity for detection of 4-MP gas molecules. This work not only broadens the understanding of our optoplasmonic hybrid structure, but also has broad application prospects in SERS and gas sensing related fields.

Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) can be applied for biological detection because of its high sensitivity and noninvasiveness for analytes. Herein, we engineer plasmonic free-standing substrates composed of Ag nanoparticles (NPs) supported on polyacrylonitrile (PAN) electrospinning nanofibrous felts as sensors for bacterial detection. Ag NPs are evenly distributed on PAN nanofibers after preimpregnation and impregnation of PAN nanofibers in Tollens’ reagent. The size and loading density of Ag NPs are tunable by adjusting the reaction time of glucose and Tollens’ reagent, thereby allowing the tuning of the surface plasmon resonance. Using 4-mercaptophenol (4-MPh) and 4-mercaptobenzoic acid (4-MBA) as probe molecules, SERS effects of Ag@PAN composite nanofibers are investigated, and the substrates allow the detection of 4-MPh and 4-MBA at a low concentration of 10–9 mol/L. Importantly, the substrates exhibit a high sensitivity of SERS performance for bacterial identification without a specific bacteria–aptamer conjugation. The SERS substrates also show good uniformity of SERS response for bacterial organelles. Furthermore, the antimicrobial property was evaluated, and the results indicate that the sample of Ag@PAN nanofiber mats possesses excellent antibacterial properties against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus.
