Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of surface enhanced Raman spectrums, in particular to a device for directionally emitting enhanced Raman spectrums by utilizing surface plasmas. A dielectric layer is arranged at one side of a multilayered film system; a to-be-measured sample is arranged at the other side of the multilayered film system; the multilayered film system comprises at least one layer of metal film; an exciting light sent by an excitation light source enters into the multilayered film system from the dielectric layer along a SPR (Surface Plasmon Resonance) angle; Raman signals in the to-be-measured sample are absorbed by the metal film and then the surface plasmas in the metal film are excited again; the surface plasmas carrying the Raman signals are coupled and emitted at the boundary between the dielectric layer and the multilayered film system; the emitting directions of the surface plasmas are also along the SPR angle; and a spectrograph is used for collecting the spectrums from SERS (Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering) signals in the to-be-measured sample. Being different from a traditional SERS detection device, the device provided by the invention is characterized in that an exciting device and a detection device are located at one side of the multilayered film system while the to-be-measured sample is arranged at the other side of the multilayered film system. The device for directionally emitting enhanced Raman spectrums by utilizing surface plasmas is capable of enhancing the Raman signals and has the advantages that the structure of the device is compact and the detection step is simplified.
