Resonance frequency-modulated surface plasma resonance detector

Abstract

A platform able to vary a plasma resonance frequency applies to a prism of a conventional surface plasma resonance system and comprises at least one platform and a plurality of metal lines. The platform is a plate-like structure having two faces—a detection face and a connection face. The metal lines are arranged on the detection face. Each metal line has a width of 20-500nm and a thickness of 20-100nm. The spacing between two adjacent metal lines is 50-1000nm. The prism of the conventional surface plasma resonance technology is an application of the refraction technology. The optical grating technology is another application of the diffraction technology. However, the present invention is different from the abovementioned two technologies. The present invention increases the wavelength range of the absorption spectrum to the mid-infrared ray to promote the detection application of the surface plasma resonance technology.
