Graphical Abstract
  • nitrogen pressure between 10 and 90 mTorr. The experiment was performed in a laser ablation system “RIBER LDM 32”. It consists of three stainless steel ultrahigh-vacuum (UHV) chambers for sample introduction, PLD deposition, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis, isolated by UHV gate valves
  • frequency of 7.5 Hz, the substrate-to-target distance was 5 cm, and the incident energy density was 4.88 J·cm−2. We studied the stoichiometry and properties of the thin films as a function of gas pressure by introducing N2 to realize RPLD. At this time, the ion pumps were closed and isolated from the PLD
  • deposition chamber, and a turbo pump was used to pump the gas out during film deposition. The films were transferred to the analysis chamber to characterize them in situ by XPS. Varying the N2 pressure, pN2, in the chamber and analyzing the films, we obtained TaN thin films at 90 mTorr of N2. XPS data were

  • half as much Ag as the MS-made sample MS_2_RT, with the highest EF among other MS-made samples, has an EF that is 1.3 times higher. However, a more significant EF increase is observed for SERS substrates made by PLD deposition on heated GaN platforms. The PLD_1_200 sample has an EF 4.4 times higher

Graphical Abstract
  • . Parameters such as the sample temperature, oxygen partial pressure, and laser intensity during PLD need to be optimized for each sample. Since our UHV NC-AFM is optimized for atomic resolution measurements, scanning over a wide range cannot be performed. To find suitable conditions for efficient PLD

Although it is difficult to obtain atomic resolution images in tapping mode, the larger scanning area of tapping AFM enabled us to check whether a step-and-terrace surface was
