Light enhancement device, manufacturing method of the same, kit for spectroscopic analysis, and spectroscopic analysis method

Abstract

The object of the present invention is to provide a novel light enhancement device manufactured easily. According to the present invention, there is provided a light enhancement device including a substrate provided with an adsorption layer formed on its surface and including a hydrophobic modified clay with organic compound; and tabular silver nanoparticles oriented and adsorbed on the adsorption layer. Furthermore, there is provided a manufacturing method of a light enhancement device including a step of forming an adsorption layer including a hydrophobic modified clay with organic compound on a surface of a substrate; and a step of immersing the substrate in an aqueous dispersion of tabular silver nanoparticles. Furthermore, there is provided a kit for spectroscopic analysis including a substrate provided with an adsorption layer including a hydrophobic modified clay with organic compound formed on its surface; and a container filled with an aqueous dispersion of tabular silver nanoparticles.
