Morphological and SERS Properties of Silver Nanorod Array Films Fabricated by Oblique Thermal Evaporation at Various Substrate Temperatures

“…Even though no noticeable change was observed in this work, the observation in a previous report clearly shows that the tilting angle of AgNRs decreases as the substrate temperature is lowered [25]. The tilting angle of the AgNRs, fabricated by an e-beam evaporator with 86° of deposition angle, was observed to decrease by ~2° when the substrate temperature was lowered from room temperature to 140 K [25]. Our observation of no noticeable variation of the tilting angle in the whole temperature range, 10-70 °C can be interpreted as the variation of the tilting angle was too small to be observed clearly.…”

“…The tilting angle, β , observed in their AgNR samples did not show any of the proposed relationships with the impinging angle, θ , i.e., neither the tangent rule, β t = arctan In addition to the relatively large tilting angle of AgNRs, we also find the influence of substrate temperature on the tilting angle.
