Abstract

The invention discloses a fiber-Raman-enhanced probe based on a tapered optical fiber and a micro-ball lens and a manufacturing method of the fiber-Raman-enhanced probe. The fiber-Raman-enhanced probe comprises the optical fiber with a tapered end, a micrometer-scale ball and glue connecting the tip of the tapered optical fiber and the ball. Single-color laser enters the optical fiber from one end of the optical fiber in a coupling manner, reaches the tapered end of the optical fiber, and converges to the surface of a sample through the ball lens at the tip of the tapered optical fiber. The probe can focus detecting light into a thin and long light beam, the width of the focused light beam is the size of sub-wavelength, and the length of the focused light beam is about three times of the wavelength. When the probe is used as the Raman probe, the thin and long focused light beam can stimulate more to-be-detected molecules, and the sub-wavelength width can increase the spatial resolution of detecting. Meanwhile, due to the fact that the tapered optical fiber is coupled into the micro-ball and then focused to the sample, the irradiating area of excitation light is reduced, only a focus point has the enhanced excitation light, and the spatial resolution and signal-to-noise ratio of Raman detecting are increased favorably.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an optical fiber Raman probe based on a tapered optical fiber and a microsphere lens, and also relates to a manufacturing method thereof, belonging to the technical field of Raman spectrum analysis. Background technique [0002] In general, it is very convenient to use Raman spectroscopy to identify the composition of substances, but for many chemical substances, the signal cannot be detected directly through Raman spectroscopy. It is necessary to use Raman enhancement technology to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of Raman signals to detect substance to be tested. Enhanced Raman scattering can be enhanced by the surface substrate, or by using the probe structure. The surface substrate enhancement effect refers to the special preparation of some metal good conductor surfaces or sols, in the excitation region, due to the surface or near surface of the sample The enhancement of the electromagnetic field leads to the phenomenon ...
