One-Step In Situ Patternable Reduction of a Ag-rGO Hybrid Using Temporally Shaped Femtosecond Pulses

In recent years, metallic nanoparticle (NP)-two-dimensional material hybrids have been widely used for photocatalysis and photoreduction. Here, we introduce a femtosecond laser reduction approach that relies on the repetitive ablation of recast layers by usi-ng temporally shaped pulses to achieve the fast fabrication of metallic NP-two-dimensional material hybrids. We selectively deposited silver-reduced graphene oxide (Ag-rGO) hybrids on different substrates under various fabrication conditions. The deposition of the hybrids was attributed to the redistribution of the cooling ejected plume after multiple radiation pulses and the exchange of carriers with ejected plume ions containing activated species such as small carbon clusters and H2O. The proposed one-step in situ fabrication method is a competitive fabrication process that eliminates the additive separation process and exhibits morphological controllability. The Ag-rGO hybrids demonstrate considerable potential for chemomolecular and biomolecular detection because the surface-enhanced Raman scattering signal of the enhancement factor reached 4.04 x 10(8).
