Description

A kind of new type of high sensitivity and the unmarked Terahertz sensor for measuring monolayer
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of Terahertz sensor, more particularly to a kind of new type of high sensitivity and unmarked measurement unimolecule The Terahertz sensor of layer.
Background technology
The method of currently used research molecular characterization, is to carry out fluorescent marker to molecule, recycles streaming instrument to label Molecule measure.This method is destructive, cannot continuously be observed the dynamic process of biomolecule.And valence Lattice are expensive, and time-consuming.The unmarked measurement of biomolecule has many advantages, such as that quick, cost is small, lossless and can abandon, highly sensitive Unmarked measurement is the target that life scientist is pursued always.
Unmarked highly sensitive detection is may be implemented using the optical microcavity of high quality factor, its high sensitivity can be with Perceive the variation of monolayer.But this method thermal stability is poor, prepare it is complex, and optical microcavity be stereochemical structure not It preferably integrates, these disadvantages cause it to be difficult to be applied in practice.THz wave has photon energy low, does not have to biomolecule There are ionising effects;The vibration of biomolecule and rotational energy level are fallen in terahertz wave band, can there is absorption spectral property;And terahertz Hereby wave can be by the strong absorption of water;Therefore with biomolecule very strong interaction can occur for THz wave, also illustrate too Hertz wave is the wave band for being very suitable for studying biological molecular electromagnetic characteristic.
Carrying out the unmarked measurement of biomolecule using THz wave, there are three types of methods, first, according to the super of perturbation method design Structure material, the sensitivity measured at present are at 50GHz/RIU/ μm(RIU, Refractive Index Unit indicate unit Variations in refractive index), second method is to be based on surface phasmon, its measurement sensitivity is suitable with the method for metamaterial. The third method is the principles of internal reflection using prism, and sensitivity will be less than both above method.Due to the thickness of monolayer Spend very little(10nm or so), in order to measure the variation of monolayer, need sensor that there is very high sensitivity.It is above-mentioned at present The sensitivity of method is all too low, is not enough to the variation for measuring monolayer.
Invention content
Goal of the invention:Existing problem and shortage for the above-mentioned prior art, the object of the present invention is to provide one kind to have It is highly sensitive, can the unmarked Terahertz sensor for measuring biologic single molecular layer design scheme, and for single point of biology The scheme of the high-sensitivity measurement of sublayer sensing identification.
Technical solution:For achieving the above object, the first technical solution that the present invention uses is a kind of novel Gao Ling Sensitivity and the unmarked Terahertz sensor for measuring monolayer, include the double-deck Meta Materials of periodic structure(Artificial electromagnetic medium, English is metamaterial), the cellular construction of the periodic structure is the orthogonal two splittings ring of opening polarization direction (splitting ring resonators, be abbreviated as SRRs).Utilize Space-Time title property point(Also known as singular point, English are Exceptional Point, are abbreviated as EP)The size for locating the resonant frequency splitting of resonant cavity is very sensitive to external disturbance Characteristic realizes the detection to external environment minor change.
Further, the centre of the double-deck Meta Materials is medium substrate film.
Further, the medium is polyimides.
Further, the thickness of the medium substrate film is 5 μm.
Further, the material of described two splitting rings is metal.
Further, the material of described two splitting rings is that two kinds of conductivity differ two kinds of larger metals, is differed here Larger standard is ten times of difference or more.
Further, the material of described two splitting rings is respectively gold and titanium or silver and lead.
Second of technical solution that the present invention uses for by Terahertz sensor as described above be used for biologic single molecular layer The method of detection, which is characterized in that cover one layer of monolayer substance in the side of the Terahertz sensor.What is provided is humorous Vibration frequency splitting value arrives greatly 5GHz, it is sufficient to be measured with terahertz time-domain spectroscopy system.
Advantageous effect:The Terahertz sensor that the present invention designs is constituted compared to previous as a result, using two kinds of metal materials It the double-deck Meta Materials and is operated near EP, sensitivity is very high, and the unmarked measurement of biologic single molecular layer may be implemented.
Description of the drawings
Fig. 1 is stereogram, front view and the side view of Terahertz sensor unit structure of the present invention.
Fig. 2 is to cover the transmission spectrum calculated after one layer of monolayer.
Specific implementation mode
In the following with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments, the present invention is furture elucidated, it should be understood that these embodiments are merely to illustrate The use scope of the present invention rather than the limitation present invention, after having read the present invention, those skilled in the art are to the present invention The modifications of various equivalent forms fall within the application range as defined in the appended claims.One, highly sensitive, can be without mark Note measures the design scheme of the Terahertz sensor of biologic single molecular layer
According to Terahertz sensor structure design and simulation as shown in Figure 1, cellular construction is that two opening polarization directions are mutual Vertical SRR rings are placed in the both sides of dielectric layer.Two SRR rings of both sides are made of gold and titanium respectively, and design parameter is a g1=5, g2= 4.31, d1=d2=20, p=50, s=9, the width of two SRR rings is all 5.Intermediate Jie Matter layer is polyimides(English is Polyimide, is abbreviated as PI), thickness 5, select this material to be in order to later real Test the realizability of work.By adjusting the size of one of ring, parity-time may be implemented in we(English is parity- Time is abbreviated as PT)Symmetry, and PT points are also a kind of singular point(EP).Current design and other work ratios, are us The metal material of two kinds of conductivity difference biggers is selected, it is more convenient in this way to realize PT points.Another bigger is not both present Two SRR rings split the upper and lower surface in substrate.This is because when two SRR rings are in approximately the same plane, there is dielectric layer covering When on the surface, when two resonators are disturbed simultaneously, lead to spectral line only overall frequency shift, be not in splitting, because up to not To the purpose for improving sensing sensitivity.
When specific implementation, as long as two kinds of conductivity differences of the material of two SRR rings of both sides are larger(General difference About ten times or more)Metal just, in addition to gold and titanium, can also be silver and lead.
Two, highly sensitive, unmarked Terahertz sensor is used for the scheme of biologic single molecular layer detection
It is to cover one layer of monolayer substance in the side of the Terahertz sensor, with terahertz time-domain spectroscopy systematic survey institute State the transmitted spectrum of Terahertz sensor.
Three, highly sensitive, can the unmarked Terahertz sensor for measuring biologic single molecular layer result and discussion
High sensitivity that the present invention designs, can the unmarked most important application of Terahertz sensor for measuring biologic single molecular layer Aspect is exactly the sensing measurement of biomolecule.Fig. 2 is the Terahertz transmission spectrum covered after one layer of monolayer.The list of emulation Molecular layers thick is 10nm.We first assume that the refractive index of molecular layer is 1 in simulations, then change its refractive index again, point Its transmission spectrum is not calculated, to obtain the variation of frequency in the presence of having molecular layer.It can be seen from the figure that when being refracted as 2, Its frequency variation reaches 16 GHz, is much larger than terahertz time-domain spectroscopy system(English is Terahertz Time Domain Spectroscopy is abbreviated as TDS)Frequency resolution, this further demonstrates that our design can be used for biologic single molecular The unmarked measurement of layer.
In short, the Terahertz sensor for the double-layer structure that we design on polyimide substrate, being mainly reflected in can be with The advantages of sensitivity, unmarked sensing measurement monolayer.It according to actual needs, can be into substrate thickness, metal structure parameter Row optimization design can also obtain other frequencies, the higher Terahertz sensor of sensitivity.Therefore, it is widely used in Terahertz In terms of sensing identification.
