基于石墨烯等离激元的无标记生物传感器及其蛋白质分子检测研究

Label free optical biosensing is of great significance to various scientific fields, e. g., fundamental research in life science, drug screening assay and medicine design, timely diagnosis for disease and early treatment on cancer, etc. Recently, the label free biosensors based on graphene plasmonic are emerged to be the research frontiers and hotspots for both nanophotonics and biomedicine. However, the critical challenge, which preventing the practical application of the graphene biosensor, was the low efficiency of the inverse solution for optical parameters. The reasons resulted from two aspects. For one hand, the experimental spectrum needed to be tested for many times as the curves fitting procedure requested. For another, the simulated spectrum during the curves fitting procedure were suffered from slow computing speed and convergence performance. In this project, we address this challenge by the methodology of combing the novel design of graphene biosensor, and the renew and upgrade of the algorithms for electromagnetic simulation. Consequently, our research efforts focus on the following studies, which are the sensing and detection of the protein molecules by a graphene multiple-band plasmonic biosensor, and the high-efficiency and fast-convergence simulation of graphene optical response by the spectral element method with a surface current density boundary condition. By the implement of this project, we will establish an innovative technique of label free optical biosensing, which enables the fast and accurate sensing of the protein optical parameters. This project can provide a powerful approach for the research of life science fields, e. g., molecular dynamics of protein, tumor studies and medical diagnosis. It has a great meaning for the practical application of the label free optical biosensing.
