Interplay between out-of-plane magnetic plasmon and lattice resonance for modified resonance lineshape and near-field enhancement in double nanoparticles array

Two-dimensional double nanoparticle （DNP） arrays are demonstrated theoretically, supporting the interaction between out-of-plane magnetic plasmons and in-plane lattice resonances, which can be achieved by tuning the nanoparticle height or the array period due to the height-dependent magnetic resonance and the periodicity-dependent lattice resonance. The interplay between the two plasmon modes can lead to a remarkable change in resonance lineshape and an improvement on magnetic field enhancement. Simultaneous electric field and magnetic field enhancement can be obtained in the gap region between neighboring particles at two resonance frequencies as the interplay occurs, which presents “open” cavities as electromagnetic field hot spots for potential applications on detection and sensing. The results not only offer an attractive way to tune the optical responses of plasmonic nanostructure, but also provide further insight into the plasmon interactions in periodic nanostructure or metamaterials comprising multiple elements.

等离子体纳米结构中的Fano共振效应及其应用

Fano共振效应是一种具有非对称线型的共振散射现象,起源于共振过程和非共振过程的量子干涉效应。近年来,在等离子体纳米结构中Fano共振现象也被发现,并成为纳米光子学的一个研究热点。等离子体Fano共振通常具有较窄的光谱线宽,且不能直接与入射光耦合,只能局域在近场,强的近场局域特性可以获得巨大的表面电磁场增强。由于等离子体Fano共振独特的光学特性,已经被应用到单分子探测、高灵敏度传感、增强光谱、完美吸收、电磁诱导透明和慢光光子学器件等众多领域当中。     

半胱氨酸修饰金纳米棒光学性质的研究

采用种子生长法制备了不同长径比的金纳米棒,并通过金硫键的结合在其表面包覆半胱氨酸分子。利用紫外-可见吸收光谱仪,扫描电子显微镜以及拉曼光谱仪等对样品进行分析和表征。实验结果表明金纳米棒产率较高,且一致性较好。表面修饰后的金纳米棒的纵向吸收峰发生蓝移,表明半胱氨酸分子与金纳米棒的结合有助于溶液分散性的提升。以结晶紫为探针分子,随着金纳米棒长径比的增加其拉曼增强效果变强。进一步分析发现,修饰后的金纳米棒的表面增强拉曼光谱的增强效果并未受到影响。通过金纳米棒与半胱氨酸分子牢固的结合,一方面可以提高金纳米棒溶液的分散性与稳定性;另一方面半胱氨酸分子可为金纳米棒修饰其它有机官能团提供了一个牢固的桥梁,有效地拓展了金纳米棒的应用方向。

Electric field distribution around the chain of composite nanoDarticles in ferrofluids

Composite nanoparticles （NPs） have the ability of combining materials with different properties together, thus receiving extensive attention in many fields. Here we theoretically investigate the electric field distribution around core/shell NPs （a type of composite NPs） in ferrofluids under the influence of an external magnetic field. The NPs are made of cobalt （ferromagnetic） coated with gold （metallic）. Under the influence of the external magnetic field, these NPs will align along the direction of this field, thus forming a chain of NPs. According to Laplace＇s equations, we obtain electric fields inside and outside the NPs as a function of the incident wavelength by taking into account the mutual interaction between the polarized NPs. Our calculation results show that the electric field distribution is closely related to the resonant incident wavelength, the metallic shell thickness, and the inter-particle distance. These analytical calculations agree well with our numerical simulation results. This kind of field-induced anisotropic soft-matter systems offers the possibility of obtaining an enhanced Raman scattering substrate due to enhanced electric fields.

胃癌患者血红蛋白的表面增强拉曼光谱分析

胃癌患者能够得到早期诊断对其治疗具有十分重要的意义,疾病状态下的血红蛋白拉曼光谱检测在血液代用品的高铁血红蛋白含量检测中以及血氧饱和定量测定中占很大优势。本实验采用微波加热法制备银胶体粒子,依次对20例胃癌患者和11例健康人的血红蛋白进行表面增强拉曼光谱分析。采用SERS谱峰归属分析结果显示胃癌患者血红蛋白中的酪氨酸、苯丙氨酸和吡咯环的含量均低于正常人。本文还讨论了血红素的分子结构,在血红蛋白和氧气结合的前后,Fe2+分别处于高低自旋态,离子半径也随着与氧结合缩小了0.075 nm从而滑落入卟啉环平面中央的孔隙之中。这种空间的拉伸变化会牵动与铁相连的F8His,使得珠蛋白中两股螺旋之间空隙缩小,导致将HC2酪氨酸排挤出空隙。利用这一机理,对血红蛋白1 560 cm-1的吸收峰进行研究,证实了胃癌患者酪氨酸含量确实低于正常人。为了能得到更加明显的诊断区分,利用降维的思想,采用主成分分析(PCA)的方法对所有的拉曼光谱进行多元统计分析,得出三维的诊断散点图。为了更加精确的得出诊断准确率,用判别分析得出诊断的灵敏度和特异性分别为90.0%和90.9%,总判别正确率为90.3%。此项研究表明：对氧合血红蛋白的表面增强拉曼光谱诊断分析有希望成为一项新型的胃癌诊断技术应用于医学领域。
