Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of optical detection technology, and specifically to a method and system for measuring electrophoretic mobility and zeta potential. Background Art

[0002] Electrophoretic light scattering (ELS) is one of the leading methods for characterizing the zeta potential of nanoparticles. This method involves applying an electric field to surface-charged nanoparticles suspended in a solution. This causes them to undergo directional electrophoretic motion and velocity along the field, inducing a Doppler effect in the scattered light, resulting in a shift in the scattered light's frequency. The frequency shift is then extracted by analyzing the spectrum to determine the particle's electrophoretic mobility. Finally, theoretical models (such as the Henry function) are used to derive the zeta potential.

[0003] The core technology of electrophoretic light scattering (ELS) is to calculate the Doppler shift of scattered light. However, when nanoparticles are in non-aqueous phases or highly conductive suspensions, their electrophoretic mobility is very low, resulting in a very small Doppler shift. In these cases, increasing the electric field strength and extending the measurement time are necessary to obtain a good electrophoretic spectrum, but this introduces other problems, such as Joule heating and electrode polarization. In such cases, traditional ELS is not a suitable solution.

This representation facilitates subsequent signal processing and analysis. Similarly, the scattered light signal is represented as Among them, A, ω s and are scattered light signals y total (t), the amplitude of the reference light signal, and the phase function of the scattered light signal.

[0073] S204: Among them,

[0074] S205: When performing phase-locked operation, ω s =ω r ,at this time

[0075] In this embodiment, in step S20, this embodiment uses advanced signal processing technology to ensure the accuracy and stability of the phase extraction of the scattered light signal. First, two orthogonal reference signals are generated - parallel reference signals y || and vertical reference signal y ⊥ (t), the two signals have the same angular frequency ω r , ensuring the synchronization of signal processing. Then, by transforming the scattered light signal y total (t) and the parallel reference signal y || and vertical reference signal y ⊥ (t) is multiplied to obtain the first modulated signal X(t): This step utilizes the principle of signal modulation to convert the phase information of the scattered light signal into a processable modulation signal, laying the foundation for subsequent phase extraction. In the phase-locked operation, the angular frequency of the reference signal is adjusted so that ω s =ω r , ensuring the accuracy of phase extraction. This phase-locking technology effectively improves the anti-interference capability of signal processing and ensures the stable output of phase information. In summary, step S20 achieves precise extraction of the phase of the scattered light signal by generating an orthogonal reference signal, performing signal modulation, and performing phase-locking operations. This process not only improves the accuracy of phase measurement but also enhances the stability and anti-interference capability of the system, providing reliable data support for subsequent electrophoretic mobility and zeta potential calculations.

[0078] S402: Based on the preset inverse trigonometric function operation, the first low-frequency signal X(t) ‘ and the second low-frequency signal Y(t) ’ , output phase signal

[0079] In this embodiment, the signal processing process is further deepened to ensure that phase information can be accurately extracted from complex signals. First, the first modulated signal X(t) and the second modulated signal Y(t) are processed by a preset low-pass filter to filter out high-frequency noise and interference, thereby obtaining the first low-frequency signal X(t). ‘ : and the second low-frequency signal Y(t) ’ : This step effectively improves the signal quality and creates favorable conditions for subsequent phase extraction. Then, the first low-frequency signal X(t) is calculated using the preset inverse trigonometric function. ‘ and the second low-frequency signal Y(t) ’ After further processing, the phase signal is finally output The preset inverse trigonometric function operation accurately converts the amplitude of the low-frequency signal into the corresponding phase value, thereby achieving precise extraction of phase information. In summary, step S40 successfully extracts the phase signal from the scattered light signal through low-pass filtering and the preset inverse trigonometric function operation. This process not only improves the accuracy of phase measurement but also enhances the stability and anti-interference capability of signal processing. Ultimately, the precise phase signal provides reliable data support for subsequent electrophoretic mobility and zeta potential calculations, further enhancing the effectiveness and accuracy of the entire measurement method.

[0082] S502: Based on the preset formula Peak P i (i=1,2,…,N), valley value V j (j=1,2,…,M), output average phase

[0083] In this embodiment, in step S50, this embodiment uses the key technology of cross-correlation operation to further accurately process the phase signal. First, the phase signal is extracted Perform cross-correlation operation with the electric field signal E(t) to obtain the cross-correlation function REφ (τ). The cross-correlation operation can effectively reveal the phase relationship between the two signals. By analyzing the peak value P of the cross-correlation function i and valley value V j , we can deeply understand the phase difference and synchronization between signals. Then, based on the preset formula and the extracted peak P i and valley value V j , calculate the average phase This step utilizes the characteristic information of the cross-correlation function and further refines the average phase value through a mathematical model, thus providing more accurate phase data for subsequent electrophoretic mobility and zeta potential calculations. In summary, step S50 successfully achieves high-precision processing of phase and electric field signals through cross-correlation calculations and feature extraction. This process not only improves the accuracy of phase measurement but also enhances the stability and reliability of data processing. Ultimately, the precise average phase value lays a solid foundation for the accurate calculation of electrophoretic mobility and zeta potential, further enhancing the effectiveness and practicality of the entire measurement method.

[0084] like Figure 1 As shown, step S60 includes:

[0085] S601: Based on the preset electrophoretic mobility formula Outputs the electrophoretic mobility μ, where λ0, n, and θ are the wavelength, medium refractive index, and scattering angle, respectively.

[0086] S602: Based on the preset Henry model, output zeta potential ζ: Among them, η, ε and F (kr) represent the viscosity coefficient, dielectric constant and Henry function respectively.

[0087] In this embodiment, the preset electrophoretic mobility formula is combined The system calculates the electrophoretic mobility and zeta potential accurately based on the preset Henry model. Using known parameters such as wavelength λ0, medium refractive index n, and scattering angle θ, the electrophoretic mobility μ is calculated. This calculation process is based on electrophoresis theory, ensuring that the electrophoretic mobility result accurately reflects the migration characteristics of the sample under the action of an electric field. Then, in step S602, the system further calculates the zeta potential based on the preset Henry model. This model takes into account the viscosity coefficient η, dielectric constant ε, and Henry function F (kr)Factors such as zeta potential were used to calculate the key parameter zeta potential through complex mathematical calculations. Zeta potential is an important indicator for measuring the surface charge of particles and is of great significance for understanding the surface properties and electrophoretic behavior of samples. In summary, step S60 successfully achieved the output of electrophoretic mobility and zeta potential through precise formula calculations and model application. This process not only improved the accuracy of the measurement results, but also enhanced the scientific nature and reliability of the method. Ultimately, the generated electrophoretic mobility and zeta potential data provided strong support for experimental analysis and application, demonstrating the advanced nature and practicality of this embodiment in measuring electrophoretic properties.

Figure 3 In (a), the peaks and valleys of the phase signal function are not obvious, and no theoretical periodic signal is formed, which will lead to a large error between the extracted electrophoretic mobility and the true value. On the contrary, after the correlation processing, that is, Figure 3 The peaks and troughs of the cross-correlation function curve in (b) are clearly distinguished, and its periodicity is significantly enhanced, which is more conducive to extracting accurate electrophoretic mobility and then obtaining more accurate zeta potential values.
