Detecting biomarkers with high sensitivity is key for the early diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Nanostructure units with knobby surface are bridged to obtain significant surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) signals. This changes the plasma coupling mode and the hotspots distribution between neighboring units as confirmed by finite-difference time-domain simulations. These arrays of bridged knobby units are used to quantitatively analyze the concentrations of alpha-Fetoprotein (AFP) and AFP-L3 by immunoanalysis using a combination of frequency shifts and intensity changes of SERS. By using these arrays of bridged knobby units as SERS immunochips, the detection limits of AFP and AFP-L3 decrease to 3 pg/mL. This immunoanalytic method has potential value for the diagnosis of early liver cancer in patients, offering advantages of convenience, time saving, low detection limit, and high precision.
