Photonic Crystal Fibre SERS Sensors Based on Silver Nanoparticle Colloid

A photonic crystal fibre （PCF） surface enhanced Raman scattering （SERS） sensor is developed based on silver nanoparticle colloid. Analyte solution and silver nanoparticles are injected into the air holes of PCF by a simple modified syringe to overcome mass-transport constraints, allowing more silver nanoparticles involved in SERS activity. This sensor offers significant benefit over the conventional SERS sensor with high flexibility, easy manufacture. We demonstrate the detection of 4-mercaptobenzoic acid （4-MBA ） molecules with the injecting way and the common dipping measurement. The injecting way shows obviously better results than the dipping one. Theoretical analysis indicates that this PCF SERS substrate offers enhancement of about 7 orders of magnitude in SERS active area.

Numerical and experimental investigation of temperature effects on the surface plasmon resonance sensor

The effects of temperature on a surface plasmon studied experimentally and theoretically. SPR resonance （SPR） sensor in Kretschmann configuration are experiments are carried out over a temperature range of 278- 313 K in steps of 5 K. A detailed theoretical model is provided to analyze the variation of performance with varying temperature of the sensing environment. The temperature dependence of the properties of the metal, dielectric, and analyte are studied, respectively. The numerical results indicate that the predictions of the theoretical model are well consistent with the experiment data.     

Temperature Effects on Prism-Based Surface Plasmon Resonance Sensor

We theoretically analyse the temperature effects on a surface plasmon resonance （SPR） sensor in Kretschmann configuration. The temperature effects include the thermo-optic effect and the dispersion of thermal-optic coefficient in the dielectric along with the thermal expansion effect, phonon-electron scattering and electron-electron scattering in the metal layer. We simulate the temperature dependence of the resonance position and the sensitivity of the SPR sensor under wavelength-interrogation and angular-interrogation mode of operation and the differences are pointed out in the two modes.
