Specific embodiment
Particular content of the invention is described in detail with reference to accompanying drawing.The composite waveguide grating of special construction, Each part ginseng Number continuously adjustabe, periodic structure can also arbitrarily change.So can be achieved with the reverse mould resonant transmission peak in optical grating construction Response with wavelength is presented line style change with the change of optical grating construction (biofluid refractive index), and this characteristic constitutes sensing Basis;Sensitivity and the quality factor of the sensor can also be regulated and controled by adjusting the fill factor, curve factor of grating, so that Gao Ling The optical biosensor of sensitivity and high quality factor is achieved.
The optical biosensor of optical grating construction be by refractive index be n1Medium periodic arrangement exists according to certain rules (refractive index is n to base material2) on, the thickness for setting the grating in optical grating construction is da(along the length of Z axis);Biofluid Thickness (depth) is d, and refractive index is n.The periodic coefficient of medium is f in optical grating constructiona, the periodic coefficient of biological solution is fbWith fc=0.3-fb(μm).Physically, grating periodic structure can be formed single slit diffraction and multislit interference by the regulation and control of electromagnetic wave, The pattern of the spectrum of formation is considered as the superposition of many patterns.When electromagnetic wave is propagated from substrate into optical grating construction, due to Electromagnetic wave propagation phase is different in different medium, can provide a reverse mould, when different biological solutions are added, reverse mould energy Different diffraction patterns are excited, a series of reverse mould resonance is formed.The resonance of these reverse moulds can shift with wavelength, and this is with regard to structure Into the basis of sensor.Then each fill factor, curve factor to the composite waveguide optical grating construction is optimized, and chooses suitable ginseng Number, makes response of its resonant transmission peak to wavelength be greatly improved so as to obtain on the change of the refractive index of biofluid Sensitivity sensor higher and bigger quality factor.
In Fig. 1, growth has one layer of silicon thin film, the horizontal stroke of the silicon thin film on the base material silica of composite waveguide grating Width is etched with for f to center positionbAnd the longitudinal length B region consistent with silicon thin film longitudinal length, the both sides difference in B regions Uniform equidistantly faMultiple width are etched with for fcAnd the longitudinal length C region consistent with silicon thin film longitudinal length, fa+fb+fa+fc =1 μm, the refractive index n of silicon thin film1=3.48, the refractive index n of base material silica2=1.48, the thickness of composite waveguide grating It is d to spenda=0.16 μm, depth d=β (μm) of biological solution, β continuously adjustabes.B regions and C regions are to hold biological fluids in figure The container part of body, is coordinate center line with the midline position in C regions, and optical grating construction is equal to the both sides (X-direction) of center line Even equidistant extension.
In fig. 2, response curve (the now f of the biological solution of different refractivity with wavelength is givena=0.35 (μ M), fb=0.11 (μm), d=0.16 (μm)), the resonant transmission peak for finding different biological solutions is change with wavelength, this The basis of sensor can just be constituted.In figs. 3 and 4, the biological solution of correspondence different refractivity is given respectively and different is filled out Fill factor faResonant transmission peak with wavelength response curve schematic diagram (now fb=0.11 (μm), d=0.16 (μm)), find Different fill factor, curve factor faCorresponding optical grating construction resonant transmission peak is similar with the Changing Pattern of wavelength, but specific change Degree is different.
Fig. 3 is summarized and obtains Fig. 4 line style schematic diagram of wavelength response (variations in refractive index with), it is found that correspondence is different Fill factor, curve factor fa, in the case where the biological solution of different refractivity is added, resonant transmission peak is linear change with wavelength, this The biological solution and formant for meaning different refractivity are one-to-one, and this characteristic ensure that the accurate of testing result Property.Said on side, for unknown biological solution, can accurately measure its type, this has great meaning in medical treatment detection Justice.
In fig. 4, the slope of straight line illustrate resonant transmission peak with wavelength change speed i.e. sensor it is sensitive Degree (S), finds for different fill factor, curve factor fa, the speed of its change is different, corresponding fa=0.35 (μm), fa= 0.25 (μm), fa=0.18 (μm), their S is respectively 576nmRIU-1、635nm·RIU-1And 678nmRIU-1.Contrast The grating sensor of single fill factor, curve factor optical grating construction and SPP types, the sensitivity of the optical biosensor is their 3-5 Times.
In Figure 5, the halfwidth (FWHM) of resonant transmission peak is given with different fill factor, curve factor fbChange schematic diagram (this When fa=0.35 (μm), d=0.16 (μm), n=2.3), find with fbIncrease, FWHM is less and less, for (d) figure (fb=0.13 (μm)) FWHM reached 0.5nm.Another index of the performance of general measurement sensor is quality factor, it The ability that sensor recognizes spectrum is represented, is represented with FOM, wherein FOM=S (nmRIU-1)/HWHM (nm) compared to single filling because The grating sensor of sub-gratings structure and SPP types, the quality factor of the optical biosensor improve about three quantity Level.
In figure 6, biofluid (the now f for different depth is founda=0.35 (μm), fb=0.11 (μm), n= 2.3), with wavelength substantially without change, this means that molten when to measure a certain biology its resonant transmission peak in practice During liquid, add biological solution volume number be on measurement result be do not have it is influential.This characteristic is that actual measurement is carried Very big facility is supplied, it is to avoid artificial precise control needs the biological fluids scale of construction for adding.
In a word, the composite waveguide grating of the optical biosensor have that simple structure, sensitivity be high, quality factor are big and The features such as detection process is easy to operate.
Embodiment above describes general principle of the invention, principal character and advantage, the technical staff of the industry should Understand, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, simply original of the invention is illustrated described in above-described embodiment and specification Reason, under the scope for not departing from the principle of the invention, various changes and modifications of the present invention are possible, and these changes and improvements each fall within In the scope of protection of the invention.
