Abstract

The invention discloses a biological sample signal amplification method adopting the combination of terahertz metamaterials and nanogold particles. The method comprises the following steps: preparing a plurality of biological sample solutions with different concentrations and gold standard avidin solutions with different concentrations; dropwise adding the biological sample solutions onto the surfaces of the terahertz metamaterials, and airing at the room temperature; dropwise adding the gold standard avidin solutions on the surfaces of the terahertz metamaterials, and airing at the room temperature; collecting terahertz time-domain signals of all sample points to be measured on the surfaces of the terahertz metamaterials and reference sample points; calculating the transmissivity or the reflectivity of all the sample points to be measured and the reference sample points according to the terahertz time-domain signals; and calculating to obtain the frequency shift of transmission peaks or reflection peaks according to the frequency value corresponding to the lowest point of the transmissivity or the reflectivity. According to the method, the terahertz metamaterials and the nanogold particles are used for modifying; the sample signals are amplified by using an electric field local enhancement effect of the metamaterials; the electric field distribution effect is changed by nanogold, and the sample signals are further amplified by nanogold modifying; and the detection is high in sensitivity, the operation is convenient and fast, and fast detection requirements increased day by day are met.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for amplifying terahertz signals of biological samples, in particular to a method for amplifying signals of biological samples in combination with terahertz metamaterials and gold nanoparticles. Background technique [0002] With the development of detection technology, spectral detection technology has gradually attracted the attention of scholars at home and abroad because of its rapid and simple detection. Terahertz spectroscopy, as an emerging spectroscopy technology, has gradually attracted people's attention. Since the vibration and rotational energy levels of many macromolecules fall in the terahertz band, terahertz waves are considered to be a very potential band for the detection of biological samples. For fields where terahertz spectroscopy has great application prospects, such as safety, biology, medicine, agriculture, and material characterization, there is a demand for trace or even ultra-trace nondestruc...
