摘要
l -2-羟戊二酸(L-2HG)在许多生理过程中起着重要作用,被认为是多种肿瘤的生物标志物。因此,在组织和体液中快速定量测定其含量具有重要的临床意义。本工作的目标是利用纳米天线辅助等离子体增强太赫兹吸收的效应,开发高效的L-2HG光子传感器。在1.337 THz谐振频率下,给出了基于硅/二氧化硅衬底线性几何金纳米天线(NA)阵列的L-2HG传感器优化设计的数值结果。采用纳米光刻技术制备NA传感器,用扫描电子显微镜对传感器进行表征,并用太赫兹时域光谱(THz-TDS)对传感器进行测试。实验验证了NA传感器对L-2HG的特异灵敏度。为了将太赫兹- tds技术表征的NA传感器精度提高一个数量级,已经提出了许多方法。
Terahertz nanoantenna sensor for detection of biomarker L-2-Hydroxyglutarate, design optimization and testing
L-2-Hydroxyglutarate (L-2HG) plays a significant role in many physiological processes and is considered as a biomarker for various types of oncology. So, its rapid and quantitative measurement in tissues and body fluids is of great clinical importance. The goal of this work is to develop highly efficient photonic sensor for L-2HG using the effect of nanoantenna-assisted plasmonic enhancement of terahertz absorption. We present the numerical results of the design optimization for L-2HG sensor based on Si/SiO2-wafer-backed arrays of golden nanoantennas (NA) of linear geometry for the resonant frequency of 1.337 THz. NA sensor was fabricated by nanolithography, characterized by scanning electron microscope and tested with terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS). Experimental validation of the NA sensor showed its specific sensitivity to L-2HG. A number of methods have been proposed to improve the accuracy of the NA sensor characterized using THz-TDS technique by an order of magnitude.
