Description

螢光增強裝置Fluorescent enhancer

本發明係關於螢光增強裝置,特別是關於利用光子晶體之螢光增強裝置。This invention relates to fluorescent enhancement devices, and more particularly to fluorescent enhancement devices utilizing photonic crystals.

螢光檢測技術為環境、生醫、食品...等等常見之檢測應用,然螢光檢測常遭遇螢光強度低而影響螢光檢測效果之困擾。光子晶體具有特殊光能隙,可應用於提高激發光強度、螢光萃取效率,為近年來提高螢光檢測靈敏度方法之一。但目前設計之光子晶體螢光檢測器僅能單次使用,且反應時間長,因此並無法進行多次或連續監測。Fluorescent detection technology is a common detection application for environmental, biomedical, food, etc. Fluorescence detection often suffers from low fluorescence intensity and affects the detection effect of fluorescent detection. The photonic crystal has a special optical energy gap and can be applied to improve the excitation light intensity and the fluorescence extraction efficiency, and is one of the methods for improving the fluorescence detection sensitivity in recent years. However, the photonic crystal fluorescent detector currently designed can only be used in a single use, and the reaction time is long, so it is impossible to perform multiple or continuous monitoring.

目前已知的技術或文獻係將螢光材料直接與光子晶體接觸,藉由該光子晶體之光能隙與螢光材料之螢光波長重疊(部分同時含有與激發光波長重疊之光能隙),達到螢光強度增強的效果。Cui等人(Anal.Methods,2010,2,448-450.)利用可檢測汞離子之螢光材料與光子晶體混合,該光子晶體之光能隙與螢光波長重疊,達到提高螢光檢測靈敏度。Li等人(Journal of Colloid and Interface Science 356,2011,63-68.)利用兩層不同光能隙之光子晶體,其中一層光能隙與激發光重疊,另一層光能隙與螢光重疊,當螢光材料滲入該光子晶體複合層中,達到提高螢光強度效果。然而上述先前技術的光子晶體感測器皆不具重複使用功能。螢光材料直接與光子晶體接觸造成待測物在光子晶體間質傳的問題,限制檢測與清洗效率,並在反覆使用中破壞光子晶體結構與螢光材料特性,致使光子晶體感 測器無法多次重複使用,亦無連續監測應用能力。另外螢光材料與光子晶體混合,部份發光會被光子晶體反射至光學檢測器相反方向,而降低可被檢測的螢光強度。The currently known technology or literature directly contacts the fluorescent material with the photonic crystal, whereby the optical energy gap of the photonic crystal overlaps with the fluorescent wavelength of the fluorescent material (partially containing a light energy gap overlapping the wavelength of the excitation light) , to achieve the effect of enhanced fluorescence intensity. Cui et al. (Anal. Methods, 2010, 2, 448-450.) use a fluorescent material that can detect mercury ions to mix with a photonic crystal. The photonic energy gap of the photonic crystal overlaps with the wavelength of the fluorescent light to improve the fluorescence detection sensitivity. Li et al. (Journal of Colloid and Interface Science 356, 2011, 63-68.) utilize two photonic crystals of different optical energy gaps, one of which overlaps with the excitation light and the other of which overlaps with the fluorescent light. When the fluorescent material penetrates into the photonic crystal composite layer, the effect of improving the fluorescence intensity is achieved. However, none of the prior art photonic crystal sensors described above have a reusable function. The direct contact of the fluorescent material with the photonic crystal causes the problem of mass transfer of the analyte between the photonic crystals, limits the detection and cleaning efficiency, and destroys the photonic crystal structure and the characteristics of the fluorescent material in the repeated use, resulting in a photonic crystal sensation. The detector cannot be reused multiple times and there is no continuous monitoring application capability. In addition, the phosphor material is mixed with the photonic crystal, and some of the light is reflected by the photonic crystal to the opposite direction of the optical detector, thereby reducing the intensity of the fluorescent light that can be detected.

綜合上述,開發一種可重複使用且可增強螢光強度的光子晶體感測器是目前需努力的目標。In summary, the development of a reusable photonic crystal sensor that enhances fluorescence intensity is currently a goal.

本發明的目的之一係開發一種螢光增強裝置,其可重複使用光子晶體進行感測並可增強螢光強度。One of the objects of the present invention is to develop a fluorescence enhancement device that can re-use a photonic crystal for sensing and enhance fluorescence intensity.

The light source can emit excitation light to excite the fluorescent material in the layer of phosphor material to emit fluorescence. The first photonic crystal layer and the second photonic crystal layer are disposed downstream of the incident direction of the excitation light of the phosphor layer. The optical energy gap of the first photonic crystal of the first photonic crystal layer overlaps with the wavelength of the excitation light, whereby the first photonic crystal layer reflects the excitation light to the phosphor material layer. The second photonic crystal optical energy gap of the second photonic crystal layer overlaps with the fluorescent wavelength of the fluorescent material to reflect the fluorescent light emitted by the fluorescent material.
