title: Synthesis of silver nanowires as a SERS substrate for the detection of pesticide thiram.
abstract: Silver nanowires with uniform diameters have been synthesized via the rapid sulfide mediated polyol method. The morphology, structure, and properties of as-prepared samples are characterized by UV-Visible spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively. The mechanism of as-prepared Ag nanowires is provided and discussed. Moreover, as-prepared Ag nanowires are used as a Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) substrate to detect thiram pesticide. The results show that this substrate based on Ag nanowires exhibits high sensitivity and reproducibility for the thiram detection.
