Funded Activity Summary
Superior Adsorption Capability of Nanosheets for Surface Enhanced Raman. This project aims to create nanotechnologies to sense traces of chemical and biological molecules. Surface adsorption is vital to many scientific and industrial fields, but the intrinsic adsorption property of two-dimensional nanomaterials is largely unknown. This project aims to examine the adsorption capability of nanosheets, such as boron nitride, and understand the thickness effect on their adsorption at the molecular scale. It also aims to demonstrate the use of these nanosheets as substrates in surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy. Their adsorption capability and other unique properties could improve the sensitivity, efficiency and affordability of this technique in chemical and biological sensing for applications such as air, water and food safety; and pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries.Funded Activity Details
