The authors present their work in the preparation of nanoporous gold layers and their patterning with an original procedure preserving the porosity, to obtain the phenomenon of extraordinary transmission of light with a porous material. The design, fabrication, and characterization of nanoslit arrays made with bulk gold and nanoporous gold films are presented and their sensing performances are compared after coating with thiolated organic molecules. Thanks to a greatly enhanced surface-to-volume ratio, nanoporous gold reveals benefits for better reaction efficiency and detection sensitivity. Moreover, plasmonic properties in the near-IR range assure employment in plasmonic devices.

Abstract
The authors present their work in the preparation of nanoporous gold layers and their patterning with an original procedure preserving the porosity, to obtain the phenomenon of extraordinary transmission of light with a porous material. The design, fabrication, and characterization of nanoslit arrays made with bulk gold and nanoporous gold films are presented and their sensing performances are compared after coating with thiolated organic molecules. Thanks to a greatly enhanced surface-to-volume ratio, nanoporous gold reveals benefits for better reaction efficiency and detection sensitivity. Moreover, plasmonic properties in the near-IR range assure employment in plasmonic devices.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
