In this paper, a hybrid wetting surface (HWS) with Au/Ag alloy nanocomposites was proposed for rapid, cost-effective, stable and sensitive SERS application. This surface was fabricated in a large area by facile electrospinning, plasma etching and photomask-assisted sputtering processes. The high-den...
