We report the hierarchical assembly of Au nanoparticles on carboxylized carbon nanotubes (c-CNTs) through Cu2+coordination. This route is facile and green, and can easily control the loading density of Au nanoparticles. Thec-CNT matrix ensures uniform distribution of Au nanoparticles, which is particularly important for the enrichment of hot spots while preventing their serious agglomeration. Moreover, thec-CNT matrix also contributes to the electromagnetic enhancement due to its surface plasmon resonance, and the chemical enhancement due to the adsorption of the target molecules. The resulting Au@c-CNT nanohybrids exhibit a remarkable synergy in SERS compared to neat Au nanoparticles.
