(2) background technique
Nineteen sixty American scientist T.H. plum is graceful et al. successfully to create First ruby crystal laser in the world, A. Jia Wen in 1961 et al. successfully develops He-Ne laser, and R.N. Hall in 1962 et al. develops gallium arsenide semiconductor laser Device.The birth of laser indicates the direction of the launch, phase, frequency and the polarization etc. of the capable multiple photons of regulation of people, makes one Higher level has been reached to the understanding of light and application.Laser shows beyond imagination in micromation and cross discipline direction Application value, therefore this field of light stream body laser is just come into being.Light fluid is respectively unique in conjunction with optics and fluid Advantage and the novel research field of a multi-crossed disciplines that is formed, concept mentioned in 2003 by university, California Institute of Technology Out, living organism has very wide because there are natural liquid environments in fields such as biomedical diagnostics, sensor measuring and imagings General application prospect.
Cell laser is a kind of special light stream body laser (laser and optoelectronics progress, cell Laser Study Progress and application summary, 2018,55:120001), the liquid environment of organism existence can be simulated in vitro or directly in life In object, the laser output of cell is realized under the excitation of outside energy.It is common compared in current biomedical every field The fluorescence signal detection method arrived has its own unique advantage by the way of laser signal detection.Firstly, laser signal It is the spontaneous emission light that excited radiation light is different from fluorescence signal, it is good being had after the signal of resonant cavity amplification feedback Directionality;Secondly, the signal energy of work particle output is much higher than fluorescence signal when driving source laser signal is higher than threshold value, So the resolution ratio of laser signal detection and sensitivity can also be much higher than fluorescence detection, also, laser signal output spectrum line width Spectrum width is extremely narrow compared with the fluorescence spectrum of luminescent material, is conducive to be timely responded in sample detection process in this way.Cell swashs Common gain media is generally fluorescent material in light device, such as fluorescin (NATURE PHOTONICS, Single-cell Biological lasers, 2011,5:406-410), fluorescent dye (Bio-switchable optofluidic lasers Based on DNA Holliday junctions, 2012,12 (19): 3673-3675), fluorescein, quantum dot, vitamin, And fluorescence resonance energy transfer equity, gain media and cell are subjected to organic combination, absorb the increasing emitted after excitation energy Beneficial signal amplifies through the continuous oscillatory feedback of optical resonator, when gain is greater than intracavitary total losses, will form laser output.
In June, 2001, Gather of Harvard University et al. allow human embryonic kidney cells to launch laser signal (NATURE PHOTONICS, Single-cell biological lasers, 2011,5:406-410), in device excitation light source need by Image enhancement system focusing makes hot spot be contracted to individual cells size, and it is bigger using two panels high reflection mirror to bond out a space In the Fabry-Perot cavity of cell size, to limit cell in the position of excitation light, so the device volume is huge Greatly, the direction and position of spatial excitation light are not easy to adjust to unicellular, and the method that can only be limited by free surrounding space is come Capture cell.2015, the Humar et al. of medical college, Harvard University had developed a plurality of cells based on Whispering-gallery-mode microcavity and swashs Light device (NATUREPHOTONICS, Intracellular microlasers, 2015,9:572-576), it was demonstrated that natural It can also realize that laser exports into the cell, artificially be placed in a regular circle shapes fat drips in the cell as Whispering-gallery-mode, output Signal is coupled to spectral detector through 200 μm of core diameter of multimode fibre, but the device volume is larger, and receives signal and used Optical fiber it is thicker, due to micro- manipulation function such as can not precisely capture to cell, so that excitation beam irradiating cell this operation What is become is inaccurate, and the micro-displacement of cell in a liquid, which will lead to excitation light beam, can not accurately be coupled into fat drips, makes gain Signal can not continuously enhance, while also increase the operation difficulty of experiment.
Surface force about optical induction leads to the capture and stretching of cell, and the common method to cell tensile has, and leads to Crossing the transmitting of optics stretcher combination microfluid can be such that single suspension cell deforms by the surface force of optical induction, pass through two beams Contrary spatial light, allow cell in microfluidic channel captured and deformed by divergent laser beam (Biophys, The optical stretcher:a novel laser tool to micromanipulate cells,81:767–784, 2001).Other methods are connect in addition, passing through the processed silicon oxide pellets of protein coating with two by erythrocyte, In bead it is fixed on a glass, another bead is captured by optical tweezer, and in the moving process of ligh trap, bead is with optical tweezer Movement and move, to achieve the effect that erythrocyte is stretched (Acta Mater, Large deformation of living cells using laser traps,52,1837–1845,2004).In addition to this also have directly using glass or The tip of metal and cell contact are measured the viscosity of cell by the stretching of the distance between two tips and curvature, equally may be used To carry out stretched operation (Biophysical Journal, Creep Function of a Single Living to cell Cell,88:2224-2233,2005).These methods include the equipment of two opposite directions, including photodynamic and machinery moves Power, contact or non-contacting stretched operation are carried out to the two sides of cell, wherein can also require micro-fluidic due to light source etc. The other equipment such as channel guarantee that the cell being stretched can only be passed through always in the environment easily survived by spatial light Microfluidic channel operates, it is proposed by the invention based on the cell laser of novel optical fiber structure by cell capture, stretching, swash The functions such as hair and reception integrate, and greatly reduce the number and size of required instrument, reduce experimental procedure, Reduce experiment difficulty.

(3) summary of the invention
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a kind of three core fibre cell laser system of coaxial Crossed Circle with stretch function System can be used for unicellular capture, the measurement of cell laser spectrum.
A kind of three core fibre cell Optical Maser System of coaxial Crossed Circle with stretch function, should " optical fiber-cell " laser Device is mainly made of following four part: (1) having new structural coaxial three core fibre of Crossed Circle, the optical fiber end is by rubbing down At the cone truncated cone-shaped of rotational symmetry, it is prepared into optical fiber optical tweezers;(2) microspheroidal optical resonator, it is intracavitary that there is optical amplifier function The gain media of energy can be distributed in ball, ball is outer or spherical shell surface layer;It (3) include that can provide the cell capture that wavelength is 980nm The gain media excitation light source of photodynamic light source and wavelength in 460-670nm;(4) the detecting light spectrum instrument of cell output laser. In the Optical Maser System: capture light beam is drawn by standard single-mode fiber 6 from capture light source 2, and being divided to via 1 × 2 coupler 3 is two Lu Guang, respectively by respectively enteing coaxial three core fibre 9 of Crossed Circle again after 4-2 and 4-3 attenuator and multi-core optical fiber splitter 8 Two of them annular fibre core 9-1 and 9-2 in.Excitation light beam is drawn by standard single-mode fiber 6 from excitation light source 1, through overdamping Device 4-1 and circulator 5 enter multi-core optical fiber splitter 8, subsequently into the middle fiber core 9-3 of coaxial three core fibre 9 of Crossed Circle.
Liquid containing cell is filled in sample cell and is stablized on objective table 11, the sample cell that optical fiber optical tweezers 10 are immersed in In, for realizing coaxial three core fibre probe of Crossed Circle to cell capture and manipulation, accurate displacement operation process passes through image The image-forming module that amplification system 12, CCD13 and computer 14 form carries out real time imagery.At the same time, the cell detected swashs Optical signal enters spectrometer 7 by three end circulators 5 and receives.Cell in liquid is by with rotational symmetry cone truncated cone-shaped optical fiber The optical fiber optical tweezers 10 at end capture, and combine manipulation by the force trapping of optical fiber optical tweezers toroidal cores 9-1 and 9-2, realize to cell position Adjustment and posture stretching so that the exciting light that is emitted of middle fiber core 9-3 is accurately docked with the completion of resonance microballoon, satisfaction Excitation light source is provided to microsphere resonator and exports the condition of resonance enhancing fluorescence signal to be detected, so that being self-assembled into is one A novel " optical fiber-cell " laser.In the system structure of above-mentioned " optical fiber-cell " laser, two of them cone circle Ring waveguide plays the role of carrying out the capture of light power and stretching to cell, and middle fiber core waveguide provides captured cell One exciting light, the exciting light of sending is coupled with the microballoon after intracellular be stretched, to realize the resonance to microballoon Sensing and measurement to parameters such as cell interior cytosol refractive index minor changes, such as Fig. 1 are completed in the output of excitation and laser signal It is shown.
Three core fibre 9 of coaxial Crossed Circle of the present invention has a middle fiber core waveguide 9-3 and two coaxial point The annular core wave guide 9-1 and 9-2 of cloth, the distance between two toroidal cores are related with the diameter of toroidal cores.Two of them toroidal cores wave It leads and is used for transmission capture light beam and precisely manipulation adjustment cell posture, intermediate core is then to be used for transmission excitation beam, as shown in Figure 2 It is the class of be passed through light in the structure and index distribution schematic diagram and each core waveguide of coaxial three core fibre of Crossed Circle Not.
Capture light beam injects two annulars of coaxial three core fibre 9 of Crossed Circle by coupler 3 and attenuator 4-2 and 4-3 In core 9-1 box 9-2.The wave band light beam is used for the capture of cell, and method is the optical fiber end system using coaxial three core fibre of Crossed Circle The reflection multi-angle frustum structure of the standby rotational symmetry as made of fine gtinding, as optical fiber optical tweezers 10, for being passed in toroidal cores The refraction for losing beam is assembled, and is formed light and is captured potential well.The capture light beam energy transmitted in the toroidal cores of three core fibre of coaxial Crossed Circle Reflection focusing enough is carried out by the frustum cone structure, to realize deeper capture potential well, is used for cell capture.In order to realize to thin Born of the same parents' stablizes capture and excitation, optical fiber optical tweezers can be prepared by optical fiber end rubbing down technology, such as the multi-angle cone of rotational symmetry Frustum cone structure, as shown in Figure 4.It is assembled to meet refraction, frustum base angle needs to meet: α < arcsin (n1/n2), n1For cell institute Locate liquid environment refractive index, n2For toroidal cores refractive index.In order to increase the distance between focus, the range for making cell that can be stretched It is bigger, for this purpose, can be realized by the method for the cone frustum cone structure of change rotational symmetry.By section cone frustum cone structure (Fig. 3 (a)) is processed into multi-angle cone frustum cone structure (Fig. 3 (b)), by the structure change of section, can further increase two The spacing of focus point, what this can increase cell can opereating specification.
The optical gradient forces gesture issued using the optical fiber optical tweezers (shown in Fig. 4) of the multi-angle cone frustum cone structure after processing During trap captures cell, each waveguide can regulate and control light intensity by attenuator independent, can not only capture thin Born of the same parents, and can be realized stretching manipulation of the cell on the radial Z of position (X, Y, Z), the process of this manipulation can be by aobvious The ccd image of micro mirror is observed to feed back its adjustment effect roughly, when optical power becomes larger, the position of nearly two beam focus of cell Stress becomes larger, and cell is integrally stretched deformation, to further change the optical power size of each light beam according to deformation.Quilt The stress condition of the cell of capture as shown in figure 5, the focus of the capture light beam in toroidal cores corresponds to the bottom of gradient force potential well, F on X/Y plane1-F4Reach equilibrium state, and the F issued with toroidal cores5And F6Mutually balance is drawn to complete stablizing for cell It stretches.
Excitation light beam injects coaxial three core fibre 9 of Crossed Circle by attenuator 4-1, circulator 5 and multi-core optical fiber splitter 8 Middle fiber core 9-3 in.The excitation beam transmitted in the middle fiber core of three core fibre of coaxial Crossed Circle can directly pass through the circle Realize the excitation of captured cell laser, method in platform structure end face are as follows: after the beam-capturing that cell is issued by toroidal cores is lived, By the adjusting of two light focus point energy, microballoon is drawn into micro- elliposoidal, works as excitation light by uneven distribution trapping stiffness When excitation, which can be used as an optics Fabry-Perot micro chamber, and the laser signal after excitation is limited in micro-nano amount In the resonant cavity of grade.It can be appreciated that the both ends of micro- ellipsoid long axis are equivalent to the anti-hysteroscope of height that two sides is placed in parallel, optical signal The round-trip transmission between hysteroscope, forms standing wave in the light roundtrip that near axis is propagated, and forms laser by feedback light amplification Outside output cavity.But since generally two being placed in parallel for hysteroscope are not absolute stabilities in an experiment, to the small of ambient enviroment Vibration or other external conditions are extremely sensitive, if small angular deflection occurs for resonant cavity, then the round-trip transmission in resonant cavity Optical signal after multiple reflections easily outside spill cavity, so as this low threshold laser of cell laser need one it is opposite Stable Fabry-Perot micro chamber, micro- ellipsoid is because the optical field distribution by centrosymmetric structure manipulates, after being stretched The elliposoidal that can become rule, can carry out the theoretical calculation of stable condition by way of abcd matrix:
The stability condition for needing to meet is
Intracavitary in the cell laser resonator based on Fabry-Perot-type cavity, light will pass through hysteroscope and cell twice respectively, It is in intracavitary incident ray transmission matrix M1For
Reflection light ability transmission matrix M2For
In above formula, R is the stability condition that cell radius calculates resonant cavity, ncellFor the effective refractive index of intracellular matter, n0 For cell external world ambient refractive index.Cell laser exports faint laser signal, and threshold value is lower than traditional laser, this Meet the application demand in biologic medical field from now on, so threshold value is an important parameter for cell laser.Generally The there is provided gain of unit length fluorescent material is
In formula, N is the molecular concentration of fluorescent material, and τ is fluorescence lifetime, and c is the spread speed of light in a vacuum, σssFor laser Absorption cross-section corresponding to wavelength.Wherein,
In formula, n is the refractive index of laser medium, and J (z) is variation function of the pump intensity in z-axis direction, σ0For pump wavelength institute Corresponding absorption cross-section, h υ are photon energy, and E (λ) is the linear function of spontaneous radiation, and
φ is quantum yield in formula.The primary signal light light intensity of intracavity round trip can pass through
It acquires.When reaching threshold value, light intensity when intracavity round trip primary light intensity is equal to initial calculates cell in this way The threshold value of laser, but in an experiment often by the matched curve of measurement data come threshold value.Fig. 6 is that Fabry-Perot is humorous The mode of vibration chamber microballoon operation principle schematic diagram, this limitation light field can make intracavitary luminous intensity very high, can effectively improve pumping It transports efficiency and largely can satisfy the application demand in cell biology to greatly reduce laser threshold.
Multi-core optical fiber splitter 8 involved in it can be regarded as that outgoing beam can be assigned to multiple and different light splitting branches In, and the device that can be coupled into each fibre core of multi-core optical fiber, wherein each light splitting branch again can be single by attenuator 4 Solely control.
