结构型微纳光纤长周期光栅免疫传感器机理与实现研究

Biosensor technologies have become a point of attraction of many researchers and investors for detection in biomedical and clinical diagnostic or Point of Care Testing, driven by the needs of rapid and low cost testing. Among these biosening methods, high-capability fiber-optic immunosensors possessing relatively low cost, and convenience, are commonly regarded as alternatives to traditional immunological methods for the analysis of biomolecules. Indeed, fiber evanescent wave as a transduction approach is based on measurable slight refractive index changes at the interface between the optical fiber device and the surrounding media, deriving from the binding reaction of immobilizing substrates with molecular analytes in near proximity of the interface. Therefore, the sensitivity of the sensor has become a major bottleneck restricting the further development of the fiber optic biosensor. In this case, we propose a novel high-sensitivity immunosensor employing microfiber long-period grating. This sensor, based on structural microfiber long-period grating with high refractive index sensitivity, is aiming to promote the spectral precision through the construction of interferometer and laser structure, and to achieve fiber surface modification by coating nano-porous thin film. The complex interaction mechanism between evanescent field and immunoreaction will be investigated and determined in our work, as well as the dominated factors which affect the immunosensitivity, not only to achieve the ultrahigh sensitivity of immunosensor, but also to offer substantial research foundation in future fiber-optic immunosensor exploitation in application ranging from life science to clinical treatment.
