The optical response of the fabricated flexible gold nanocups platforms together with their SERS efficiency. (A) Measured (solid spectra) and simulated (dotted spectra) reflectance of Au PDMS PS 527, Au PDMS PS 600 and Au PDMS PS 719. (B) Schematic illustration of the Au PDMS PS 719 substrates considered in simulation together with the distribution of the electromagnetic field intensity (E/E0)2 for Au PDMS PS 719 at 633 nm. E0 is the incident light and it is equal to 1. (C) SERS spectra of 4-MBA adsorbed on the flexible plasmonic nanocups with different diameters: Au PDMS PS 527 (green spectrum), Au PDMS PS 600 (blue spectrum), Au PDMS PS 719 (red spectrum) and Au PDMS PS 836 (magenta spectrum) with excitation laser at 633 nm.
