Several thicknesses of Au at t=40nm, t=50nm and t=300nm were sputtered on the glass substrate. The hybridization of bilayer and trilayer films were formed by depositing GO-GNP layers and GNP-GO layers on top of various thicknesses of Au coated substrates. UV-Vis spectra analysis was conducted to characterize the plasmon absorption for each configuration. The plasmon absorption was successfully amplified by employing hybrid trilayer Au-GO-GNP with the thickness of Au film was fixed at t=50nm. It is noteworthy to highlight that the employment of bilayer and trilayer configurations are the key success to enhance the SPP excitation. Au-GNP and Au-GNP-GO results no significant outcome in comparison with Au-GO and Au-GO-GNP. A redshift of the absorbance wavelength evinces the presence of GO on Au-GO sample and GNP on Au-GO-GNP sample due to the surface reconstruction. It is important to emphasize that not all bilayer and trilayer configurations able to enhance the plasmon absorption where no significant output was obtained with the hybridization order of Au-GNP and Au-GNP-GO.en-USConference Paper1972
