• SERS on 3D structures can detect proteins at low concentrations without labels.
• Concentrations as low as 0.05 μg mL−1 could be detected for 6 different proteins.
• The SERS signal is background free and independent of the protein charge.
In this paper we use surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) on 3D metallic structures for label-free detection and characterization of proteins of interest at low concentrations. The substrates are prepared via nanopatterning with latex nano/microparticles and Cr and Ag sputtering, yielding stable, tunable, and mechanically flexible plasmonic structures. The nanovoids generate a SERS signal of the proteins of interest that is background free and independent of the protein charge. Concentrations as low as 0.05 μg mL−1 could be detected for 4 different proteins. The proteins also exhibit significantly different SERS spectra on these substrates, which is an important feature for future label-free direct detection schemes.
