Abstract
Hexagonal Ag nanoplates with long and ultranarrow gaps (about 90 nm in length, 2 nm in width) are synthesized via seed-mediated growth method. By growing around the polymer shell on the seed, the Ag domain cannot merge at the meet-up point, leaving a long narrow gap in the resulting plate. These gapped nanoplates exhibit high sensitivity in SERS detection, with limitation of 10-9 M for 2-naphthalenethiol.
