Compact Optical Filter For Dual-wavelength Fluorescence-spectrometry Based On Enhanced Transmission Through Metallic Nano-slit Array

摘要

A novel optical filter based on enhanced transmission through metallic nano-slit is proposed for dual-wavelength fluorescence-spectrometry. A special structure, sampled-period slit array, is utilized to meet the requirement of dual-wavelength transmission in this system. Structure parameters on the transmission property are analyzed by means of Fourier transformation. With the features both to enhance the fluorescence generation and to enhance light transmission, in addition with the feasibility for miniaturization, integration on one chip, and mass production, the proposed filters are promising for the realization of dual-wavelength fluorescence-spectrometry in micro-total-analysis-system.
