Description
Summary:The biosynthesis of metal nanoparticle and their suitable assembly has recently gained tremendous interest for its application in biomedical arena such as substrates for surface-enhanced Raman scattering and others. In this article, an easy, low-cost, fast, bio-friendly and toxic-reducing agent free protocol has been described for the preparation of silver nanoparticle film using biocompatible 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine phospholipid Langmuir monolayer template. Interactions, docking and attachment of silver ions to the above-mentioned phospholipid monolayer have been studied by surface pressure–area isotherm and compressibility analysis at the air–water interface. We have deposited the Langmuir–Blodgett monolayer/multilayer containing silver nanoparticle onto glass/SiO 2 /quartz substrates. The formation of phospholipid–silver nanoparticle complex in Langmuir–Blodgett film has been characterized by field emission-scanning electron microscopy and high-resolution tunneling electron microscopy images. We have applied this deposited film as a substrate for surface-enhanced Raman scattering application using rhodamine 123 to understand the existence of the surface plasmon activity of silver nanoparticle.
