Evanescent excitation occurs when the convergent laser reaches the surface, and a photomultiplier tube detects the emitted fluorescent signal. A two-dimensional actuator scans the whole surface to achieve planar laser excitation and fluorescence collection. The penetration depth of the evanescent field into the protein targets is only some hundred nanometers and can be controlled by different incident angle of the laser beam, so the undesired background signals are reduced dramatically and the detection sensitivity is improved by a factor of 50 to 100 comparing to confocal excitation. This approach can detect low abundance analytes without signal amplification.展开更多

However, its optoelectronic applications have been limited due to its indirect band gap nature. In this study, we fabricated a new type of phototransistor using multilayer MoS2 crystal hybridized with p-type organic semiconducting rubrene patches. Owing to the outstanding photophysical properties of rubrene, the device characteristics such as charge mobility and photoresponsivity were considerably enhanced to an extent depending on the thickness of the rubrene patches. The enhanced photoresponsive conductance was analyzed in terms of the charge results of the nanoscale laser confocal time-resolved PL measurements. transfer doping effect, validated by the microscope photoluminescence (PL) and展开更多

The system selects the emitting LED, which is economical and practical as a light source. The experiment of the emission and excitation optical spectrum, decay curve of fluorescence and residuals for several sensitive materials confirms the match of Y2O2S:Eu using the light source and the feasibility of the system. The rare earth material Y2O2S:Eu is selected as the material candidate for being the most sensitive.展开更多
