title: Organic-free synthesis of ultrathin gold nanowires as effective SERS substrates.
abstract: We present a novel and facile fabrication of ultrathin gold nanowires in the absence of organic reagents. Measurements of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) demonstrated that the obtained organic-free ultrathin Au nanowires can serve as simple and effective SERS substrates.
