Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is proving to be suitable for wearable chemical sensors designed to provide chemical information about the wearer. However, SERS has a strong dependence on the excitation wavelength. In addition, gold-based SERS substrates are costly, and silver-based SERS substrates struggle to manifest the durability essential for wearable sensors. In this study, we present a cost-effective solution using silver nanomesh SERS substrates that exhibit both the durability of SERS and an ultrabroadband response to SERS.
