Tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) is a powerful technique for nanoscale chemical imaging. However, its worldwide expansion is still limited by the challenging fabrication of cheap, robust and efficient TERS tips as optical nanosources to amplify the Raman signal. An original method based on bipolar electrodeposition is described here to prepare gold-coated AFM cantilevers used as TERS tips. This wireless method is simple to implement, cost-effective, and allows for the parallel fabrication of several TERS tips with good reproducibility of the metal thickness and a relatively long lifetime. The TERS activity was confirmed by imaging graphene oxide flakes with high spatial resolution (below 10 nm). A promising yield of 64% was achieved for the fabrication of active TERS tips. Therefore, this method could pave the way for the development of new chemical routes for the preparation of TERS tips and other plasmonic nanostructures.
