Main objective

The development of a new and improved SERS-based flexible nanoplatform for the noninvasive detection of neuromarkers at very low concentrations using modern fabrication and characterization techniques.

Specific objectives

• The fabrication of the 3D bioinspired nanopatterns using the top-down nanoimprint lithography technique.

• The fabrication of a ZnO@Ag-based hierarchical nanosurface with excellent Raman amplification properties.

• The ultrasensitive detection of in vivo harvested neurological biomarkers using surface-enhaced Raman spectroscopy
