Plasmonic-enhanced fluorescence emission using D-shape microstructured optical fiber
Highly sensitive side-polished D-shaped optical fiber sensors have been fabricated based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technology. Current techniques in plasmonic-enhanced total internal reflection microscopy (TIRM) and evanescent wave microscopy, although advantageous, require cumbersome set-ups and encompass large coupling losses. A gold coated Dshaped optical fiber was demonstrated to provide fluorescence enhanced spectroscopy. Comparison was made between a gold coated and uncoated D-shaped microstructured optical fiber (MOF) with respect to excitation of Rhodamine B (Rh B). Results highlighted improved fluorescence emission intensity and heightened sensitivity in fluorescence spectroscopy in the gold coated device, indicating potential in enhanced bio-imaging applications.
