The combination of interface engineering and defect engineering is a promising strategy for developing new semiconducting surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate. Herein, an organic/inorganic hybrid g-C₃N₄/TiO_2-X heterojunction with synchronous generation of strong interface effect and abundant surface oxygen vacancy (O_V) defect was prepared by a simple sol-hydrothermal procedure with a help of urea. Due to the improved substrate-to-molecule charge transfer (CT) from joint contribution of high-efficiency carrier separation induced by strong interface coupling effect and multiple CT paths derived from abundant surface O_V, g-C₃N₄/TiO_2-X substrate exhibits greatly enhanced SERS effect for non-resonant 4-mercaptobenzoic acid (4-MBA) probe. The enhancement factor of g-C₃N₄/TiO_2-X substrate for 4-MBA is as high as 5.57 × 10⁶, and the substrate exhibits ultra-high stability and excellent spectral reproducibility. More meaningfully, the developed g-C₃N₄/TiO_2-X heterojunction can be used to execute an ultrasensitive detection for antibiotic residues in real water system, even comprehensive evaluation of multi-component residues.
