Description

A Surface Plasmon Coupled Fluorescence Detection Device technical field The invention relates to a fluorescence detection device, in particular to a surface plasmon coupled fluorescence detection device. Background technique Due to the advantages of high sensitivity and diverse methods, fluorescence technology is widely used in various analytical and characterization processes, especially in the field of biological sciences, including gene expression, drug diagnosis, and biohazard detection. Fluorophores on metal surfaces have unique fluorescent properties, which have the characteristics of enhanced fluorescence intensity, quantum yield and photostability. At present, many research directions are focused on the near-field interaction between metals and fluorophores, especially the research on Surface Plasmon Coupled Emission (SPCE). SPCE utilizes the near-field interaction between the excited state fluorophore and the nano-metal film within 200nm of the nano-metal surface...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The weak point of this device is: 1, bulky, high power consumption

Although LED has the advantages of small size, low energy consumption, and cheap price, but because LED is an incoherent light source, its brightness is low, its monochromaticity is poor, its response speed is low, and its beam divergence angle is large, which can easily cause large background noise. , so a complex optical collimation system and focusing system are required

2. Complex structure and cumbersome operation

The whole device is prone to problems such as misalignment and defocusing, thus affecting the accuracy of the detection results

3. High manufacturing cost, which is not conducive to promotion and use

As a key component of the fluorescence detection system, the light source is often one of the most expensive consumables of the system, and it is impossible for a conventional laboratory to be fully equipped with a variety of expensive lasers

The structure of the double-table rotary table is complicated, and it cannot be purchased in ordinary photoelectric product manufacturing companies. It can only be customized in professional processing companies according to special specifications, which limits the promotion and application of SPCE methods in conventional laboratories.
