Description

表面增強拉曼光譜元件及其製造方法與應用Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy element and its manufacturing method and application

本發明是有關於一種表面增強拉曼光譜元件,特別是指一種不需乾燥待測樣品即可以測量的表面增強拉曼光譜元件。The present invention relates to a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy element, and more particularly to a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy element that can be measured without drying the sample to be tested.

表面增強拉曼散射(Surface-enhanced Raman Scattering,簡稱SERS)法於1974年被提出,係指當待測樣品放置在由奈米金屬顆粒或粒子簇(cluster)沉積形成的金屬表面時,待測樣品受金屬表面電漿共振產生之電磁場影響,能增強拉曼散射訊號至百萬倍以上之現象。SERS法被廣泛應用於製作表面增強拉曼基板,以利於後續用於分析微量樣品。The Surface-enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) method was proposed in 1974 to refer to the sample to be tested when the sample to be tested is placed on a metal surface formed by deposition of nano metal particles or clusters. It is affected by the electromagnetic field generated by the resonance of the metal surface plasma, which can enhance the Raman scattering signal by more than one million times. The SERS method is widely used to fabricate surface-enhanced Raman substrates for subsequent analysis of trace samples.

在表面增強拉曼基板的製作方法中,銀鏡反應覆膜法因具備價格便宜且適於大量製備等優點,而成為主要製作方法。表面增強拉曼基板一般包含一金屬或玻璃板材,及一設置在該板材上且由銀或金所形成的奈米金屬粒子層。表面增強拉曼基板在使用時將基板浸入待測量溶液中或將待測溶液置於該基板表面上,以激發源(如雷射光源)直接照射該表面,並由偵測器收集散射光。In the method for producing a surface-enhanced Raman substrate, the silver mirror reaction coating method is mainly used because it has an advantage of being inexpensive and suitable for mass production. The surface-enhanced Raman substrate generally comprises a metal or glass plate, and a layer of nano metal particles disposed on the plate and formed of silver or gold. The surface-enhanced Raman substrate is immersed in the solution to be measured or the solution to be tested is placed on the surface of the substrate in use, and an excitation source (such as a laser source) directly illuminates the surface, and the scattered light is collected by the detector.

US2008/0291442揭示一種表面增強拉曼基板,製作方式是取一平面基板,先將多數個能夠偏極共振的奈米金屬粒子置於該基板上,再以高分子材料對該奈米金屬粒子進行固定,形成一覆蓋該基板並具有數個奈米金屬粒子鑲嵌 於其中的高分子層,且高分子層的表面有奈米金屬粒子露出。實際測量時,此一基板的配置方式有助於提升該奈米金屬粒子的穩定性,待測樣品可吸附於奈米金屬粒子露出於高分子層表面的部分,但對於測量低濃度或微量體積的待測樣品水溶液,則會因平面基板無法將待測樣品水溶液均勻侷限在一定區域中,致使待測樣品分佈不均的情況下,造成測量訊號缺乏再現性,難以進行定量量測。US 2008/0291442 discloses a surface-enhanced Raman substrate which is prepared by taking a planar substrate by first placing a plurality of nano metal particles capable of repolarization on the substrate, and then performing the nano metal particles with a polymer material. Fixed to form a substrate covering the substrate and having a plurality of nano metal particles inlaid The polymer layer is formed therein, and the surface of the polymer layer is exposed with nano metal particles. In actual measurement, the configuration of the substrate helps to improve the stability of the nano metal particles, and the sample to be tested can be adsorbed on the portion of the nano metal particles exposed on the surface of the polymer layer, but for measuring low concentration or micro volume. The aqueous solution of the sample to be tested may be limited to a certain area due to the inability of the planar substrate to uniformly limit the aqueous solution of the sample to be tested, resulting in a lack of reproducibility of the measurement signal and difficulty in quantitative measurement.

雖然文獻中有些學者嘗試以不同方法克服測量樣品水溶液的困擾,例如透過加熱去除水份,或設置包含親水性濾紙的基板,使待測樣品水溶液先與基板接觸後水再被濾去;這些方法還除了步驟繁瑣外,仍存有無法真正去除測量水份之疑慮,以及加熱後對奈米材料以及待測樣品水溶液之影響,或待測樣品水溶液在除水後對奈米金屬材料是否有足夠之吸附效果等問題。Although some scholars in the literature have tried to overcome the problem of measuring the aqueous solution of the sample by different methods, such as removing water by heating, or setting a substrate containing hydrophilic filter paper, the aqueous solution of the sample to be tested is first filtered after contact with the substrate; In addition to the cumbersome steps, there are still doubts that the water cannot be truly removed, and the effect on the nanomaterial and the aqueous solution to be tested after heating, or whether the aqueous solution of the sample to be tested is sufficient for the nano-metal material after water removal. Problems such as adsorption effect.

由上述可知,尋找一種對於測量低濃度或微量體積的待測樣品水溶液具有良好靈敏度及再現性的表面增強拉曼光譜元件,是目前重要的研究方向之一。From the above, it is known that a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy element having good sensitivity and reproducibility for measuring a low concentration or a small volume of an aqueous sample to be tested is one of the important research directions.

因此,本發明之第一目的,即在提供一種特別適用於量測待測樣品水溶液,且具有良好靈敏度及再現性的表面增強拉曼光譜元件。Accordingly, a first object of the present invention is to provide a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy element which is particularly suitable for measuring an aqueous solution of a sample to be tested and which has good sensitivity and reproducibility.

於是,本發明表面增強拉曼光譜元件,包含至少一具有一頂面的柱狀基材、至少一至少覆蓋該柱狀基材之頂面的疏水性高分子膜,及至少一形成於該頂面上並覆蓋該疏 水性高分子膜的奈米金屬粒子層。Therefore, the surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy element of the present invention comprises at least one columnar substrate having a top surface, at least one hydrophobic polymer film covering at least a top surface of the columnar substrate, and at least one formed on the top Covering the surface A nano metal particle layer of a water-based polymer film.

本發明之第二目的,在於提供一種表面增強拉曼光譜元件的製造方法,包含:提供至少一柱狀基材,係具有一頂面;設置至少一疏水性高分子膜,係至少覆蓋該柱狀基材之頂面;及形成至少一奈米金屬粒子層,係位於該頂面上並覆蓋該疏水性高分子膜。A second object of the present invention is to provide a method for fabricating a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy element, comprising: providing at least one columnar substrate having a top surface; and providing at least one hydrophobic polymer film covering at least the column a top surface of the substrate; and a layer of at least one nano metal particle formed on the top surface and covering the hydrophobic polymer film.

一般平面式的表面增強拉曼光譜元件測量時,待測樣品的擴散方向和擴散範圍不易掌控且無法均勻覆蓋於該平面式基板上,且當待測樣品為水溶液時特別難以準確地進行定量分析。為了解決上述問題,本發明透過該表面增強拉曼光譜元件呈柱狀結構以及疏水性高分子膜的設置,使得待測樣品得以限制在該形成於頂面上的奈米金屬粒子層上,而達到能夠準確測量微量體積之樣品的目的。值得一提的是,當待測樣品為水溶液時,更可藉由疏水性高分子膜的設置並運用水固有的表面張力,使得樣品能夠以液滴型態集中於該奈米金屬粒子層上而不散去;因此,運用本發明表面增強拉曼元件不需再進行除水處理即可以直接測量,並且能夠測量微量體積的待測樣品水溶液,更可明顯提昇靈敏度、再現性以及量測效率,大幅地改善了過去量測待測樣品水溶液的問題。When the planar surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy element is generally measured, the diffusion direction and diffusion range of the sample to be tested are difficult to control and cannot be uniformly covered on the planar substrate, and it is particularly difficult to accurately perform quantitative analysis when the sample to be tested is an aqueous solution. . In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a columnar structure and a hydrophobic polymer film through the surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy element, so that the sample to be tested is confined on the nano metal particle layer formed on the top surface, and Achieve the purpose of accurately measuring a small volume of sample. It is worth mentioning that when the sample to be tested is an aqueous solution, the sample can be concentrated on the nano metal particle layer in a droplet pattern by the arrangement of the hydrophobic polymer film and using the surface tension inherent to the water. Therefore, the surface-enhanced Raman element of the present invention can be directly measured without using water removal treatment, and can measure a small volume of the sample aqueous solution to be tested, and can significantly improve sensitivity, reproducibility, and measurement efficiency. , greatly improved the problem of measuring the aqueous solution of the sample to be tested in the past.

Preferably, the nano metal particle layer is formed by a silver mirror reaction coating method which is low in cost and suitable for mass production.

其中,運用銀鏡反應覆膜法的具體作法可例如但不限於:提供一銀氨溶液,將覆蓋有該疏水性高分子膜的基材 頂面浸入該銀氨溶液中,並加入作為還原劑的葡萄糖溶液,使奈米銀粒子形成於該疏水性高分子膜上。此時,若銀氨溶液與殘留於疏水性高分子膜的溶劑接觸,有助於使奈米銀粒子還原。The specific method of using the silver mirror reaction coating method may be, for example but not limited to, providing a silver ammonia solution, and the substrate covered with the hydrophobic polymer film. The top surface is immersed in the silver ammonia solution, and a glucose solution as a reducing agent is added to form nano silver particles on the hydrophobic polymer film.
