The disclosure discloses a high-flux and ultra-sensitive detection dot array enhancement chip, and belongs to the field of food safety detection. In the disclosure, single-layer Au nano-particles are chemically bonded onto a hydrophilic substrate, an Au nano-material is naturally deposited in holes of the chip under an electrostatic adsorption action, and a regular dot array is formed. Au particles distributed in the holes are separated with a particle surfactant (CTAB) to form plasma gaps so as to enhance the self-assemble of Au nano-particles distributed on hot-spots for a long range effect, thereby improving the sensing signal in detection efficiency and sensitivity of the chip.

The present invention relates to silicon-compound-coated fine metal particles, with which surfaces of fine metal particles, composed of at least one type of metal element or metalloid element, are at least partially coated with a silicon compound and a ratio of Si—OH bonds contained in the silicon-compound-coated fine metal particles is controlled to be 0.1% or more and 70% or less. By the present invention, silicon-compound-coated fine metal particles that are controlled in dispersibility and other properties can be provided by controlling the ratio of Si—OH bonds or the ratio of Si—OH bonds/Si—O bonds contained in the silicon-compound-coated fine metal particles. By controlling the ratio of Si—OH bonds or the ratio of Si—OH bonds/Si—O bonds, a composition that is more appropriate for diversifying applications and targeted properties of silicon-compound-coated fine metal particles than was conventionally possible can be designed easily.
