This paper presents a grating~integrated SPR (Surface Plasmon Resonance) sensor chip for simple and inexpensive biomolecule detection. The grating-integrated SPR sensor chip has two sensing channels having a nano grating for SPR coupling. An external mirror is used for multi channel SPR sensing. The present sensor chip replaces bulky and expensive optical components, such as fiber-optic switches or special shaped prisms, resulting in a simple and inexpensive wavelength modulated multi-channel SPR sensing system. We fabricate a SPR sensor chip integrated with 835 nm-pitch gratings by a micromolding technique to reduce the fabrication cost. In the experimental characterization, the refractive index sensitivity of each sensing channel is measured as $321.8{\pm}8.1nm$/RI and $514.3{\pm}8.lnm$/RI, respectively. 0.5uM of the target biomolecule (streptavidin) was detected by a $1.13{\pm}0.16nm$ shift of the SPR dip in the 10%-biotinylated sample channel, while the SPR dip in the reference channel for environmental perturbation monitoring remained at the same position. From the experimental results, multi-channel biomolecule detection capability of the present grating-integrated SPR sensor chip has been verified. On the basis of the preliminary experiments, we successfully measured the binding reaction rate for the $2\;nM{\sim}200\;nM$ monoclonal-antibiotin, thus verifying biomolecule concentration detectability of the present SPR sensor chip. The binding reaction rates measured from the present SPR sensor chip agredd well with those from a commercialized SPR sensor.

In this paper, we fabricated the polymer waveguide type surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor using a white light source and optical spectrum analyzer (OSA). Fabricated sensor uses the principle of phase matching between evanescent wave and surface plasmon wave. According to the measuring result, the shift of resonance wavelength conducts the change of the refractive index. The proposed SPR sensor is expected to apply the integrated multichannel SPR sensor and the realtime monitoring system.

표면 플라즈몬 공명을 이용한 센서는 굴절계 기기의 일종으로서 높은 감도를 가질 뿐만 아니라 비표지 방식이라는 장점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 재래식 SPR 칩을 이용하여 시판 술 4종의 알코올 함량을 측정하였다. 또한, 재래식 SPR 칩의 감도를 개선하기 위하여 금 박막 위에 금으로 나노형상을 구축하여 나노형상 SPR 칩을 제조하여 모형 술에 대한 감도 개선 효과를 분석하였다. 재래식 SPR 칩을 이용하여 시판 술의 알코올 함량을 측정하기 위한 검량선을 개발하였을 때 시료를 전처리 하지 않고 그대로 측정하였을 때 가장 좋은 검량선을 얻을 수 있었다. 소주, 청주, 이과두주, 탁주 등 시판 술 4종에 대한 1차 회귀식의 검량식에서 결정계수는 각각 0.992, 0.933, 0.918, 그리고 0.984로 나타났다. 한편, 재래식 SPR 칩의 감도를 개선하기 위해 나노형상 SPR 칩을 제조하기 위하여 Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) 방법을 활용하였다. 본 연구에서는 수십 nm 두께의 금 박막을 바닥층으로 하여 그 위에 나노 크기의 실리카 입자를 단분자 층으로 덮어 형틀을 제조하고 다시 그 위에 금을 증착한 후 실리카 입자를 제거하는 방법으로 나노형상을 갖는 SPR 칩을 제조하였다. 나노형상 SPR 칩의 성능을 평가하였을 때 20% 알코올 함량을 가지는 모형 술에 대해서 바닥층의 두께가 50 nm, 나노형상에서 골의 깊이가 20 nm, 나노형상의 배열주기가 300 nm일 때 SPR의 감도가 가장 좋아서 95%의 감도 향상을 얻을 수 있었다. SPR의 감도는 칩과 관련된 인자, 시료의 종류 및 상태에 따라 다르게 나타날 수 있으므로 측정 목적에 알맞은 칩의 설계와 선택이 요구된다.

Characteristics of the conventional gold (Au) surface plasmon resonance (SPR) chip, bi-metallic(Au/silver (Ag)) SPR chip, and tri-metallic(Au/Ag/Au) SPR chip were investigated and compared in the intensity measurement mode for the enhancement of SPR image sensor reactivity. Reflectance curves of the Au, bi- and tri-metallic SPR chips were acquired in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) solution and were compared. The line width of the reflectance curve of the bi-metallic chip was the narrowest among the three different types of the chips. Also, the tangential slope of the bi-metallic chip was steeper than those of the other chips. Various concentrations of bovine serum albumin (BSA) were utilized in the SPR experiment. As a result, among the above three chips reflectance variation value of the bi-metallic chip was the largest.

The problem considered in this paper is about the collocation of sensor and actuator for the active control of sound and vibration. It is well-known that a point collocated sensor-actuator pair offers an unconditional stability with very high performance when it is used with a direct velocity feedback (DVFB) control, because the pair has strictly positive real (SPR) property. In order to utilize this SPR characteristics, a matched piezoelectric sensor and actuator pair is considered, but this pair suffers from the in-plane motion coupling problem with the out-of$.$plane motion due to the piezo sensor and actuator interaction. This coupling phnomenon limits the stability and performance of the matched pair with DVFB control. As a new alternative, a point sensor and piezoelectric actuator pair is also considered, which provides SPR property in all frequency range except at the first resonance in very low frequency. This non-SPR resonance could be minimized by applying a phase lag compensator.

A novel fiber optic surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor using cyclic olefin copolymer (COC) prism with the spectral modulation is presented. The SPR sensor chip is fabricated using the SU-8 photolithography, Ni-electroplating and COC injection molding process. The sidewall of the COC prism is partially deposited with Au/Cr (45/2.nm thickness) by e-beam evaporator, and the thermal bonding process is conducted for micro fluidic channels and optical fibers alignment. The SPR spectrum for a phosphate buffered saline (0.1.M PBS, pH.7.2) solution shows a distinctive dip at 1300.nm wavelength, which shifts toward longer wavelength with respect to the bovine serum albumin (BSA)concentrations. The sensitivity of the wavelength shift is $1.16\;nm{\cdot}{\mu}g^{-1}{\cdot}{\mu}l^{-1}$. From the wavelength of SPR dips, the refractive indices (RI) of the BSA solutions can be theoretically calculated using Kretchmann configuration, and the change rate of the RI was found to be $2.3{\times}10^{-5}RI{\cdot}{\mu}g^{-1}{\cdot}l^{-1}$. The realized fiber optic SPR sensor with a COC prism has clearly shown the feasibility of a new disposable, low cost and miniaturized SPR biosensor for biochemical molecular analyses.

In this study, graphene, the most attractive material today, has been applied to the wavelength-modulated surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor. The optical fiber sensor technology is the most fascinating topic because of its several benefits. In addition to this, the SPR phenomenon enables the detection of biomaterials to be label-free, highly sensitive, and accurate. Therefore, the optical fiber SPR sensor has powerful advantages to detect biomaterials. Meanwhile, Graphene shows superior mechanical, electrical, and optical characteristics, so that it has tremendous potential to be applied to any applications. Especially, grapheme has tighter confinement plasmon and relatively long propagation distances, so that it can enhance the light-matter interactions (F. H. L. Koppens, et al., Nano Lett., 2011). Accordingly, we coated graphene on the optical fiber probe which we fabricated to compose the wavelength-modulated SPR sensor (Figure 1.). The graphene film was synthesized via thermal chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process. Synthesized graphene was transferred on the core exposed region of fiber optic by lift-off method. Detected analytes were biotinylated double cross-over DNA structure (DXB) and Streptavidin (SA) as the ligand-receptor binding model. The preliminary results showed the SPR signal shifts for the DXB and SA binding rather than the concentration change.

연구배경 : 클라미디아 감염의 진단은 혈청검사로 이루어진다. 현재 표준 방법은 MIF(microimmunofluorescence)이나 이 방법은 주관적이고 시간이 많이 걸리는 단점이 있다. 최근을 SPR(surface plasmon resonance) 센서를 이용한 단백질 칩이 감염의 새로운 진단 방법으로 제시되고 있다. 클라미디아 감염의 진단을 위한 단백질 칩 개발을 위하여 금 칩 표면에 세균을 고정하고 클라미디아 균에 대한 항체와 표면 위 세균과의 반응을 SPR 센서를 이용하여 측정하고자 하였다. 방법 : 표면 항원으로 배양한 Chlamydophila pneumoniae LKK1의 EB를 정제하였다. 양전하를 띤 PDDA (polydiallyldimethylammonium chloride)를 이용하여 전하를 이용한 단백질 칩을 제작하였다. 클라미디아 균을 고정시킨 후에 atomic force microscopy를 이용하여 표면을 관찰하였다. 클라미디아 균에 대한 항체를 투여하고 나서 자체 제작한 SPR 센서를 이용하여 항원 항체 반응을 SPR 파장 변화로 측정하였다. 결과 : 양전하를 띤 PDDA 표면위에서 클라미디아 균이 고정되었음을 확인 하였다. 그리고, 항체를 투여한 후에 SPR 파장의 증가를 확인하였다. 파장 변화는 항원의 농도와 관련이 있었다. 결론 : 전하를 이용하여 클라미디아 폐렴균의 EB를 단백질 칩에 고정하였고, 단백질 칩 위에서의 항원 항체 반응을 확인하였다. 비정형 폐렴의 진단에 SPR 센서가 기여할 수 있을 것으로 사료되나, 실제 임상 시료에의 적용을 위해서는 좀더 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Rapid detection of foodborne pathogens has been a major challenge for the food industry. Salmonella contamination is well known in all foods including pasteurised milk. The possibility of specific detection of Salmonella Enteritidis by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor was explored using a commercially available portable SPR sensor. Self assembly technique was adopted to immobilize anti-Salmonella antibodies on the gold sensing surface of the SPR sensor. The concentration of polyclonal antibody for use in the SPR biosensor was chosen to 1.0 mg/mL. Experiments were conducted at near real-time with results obtained for one SPR biosensor assay within 1 hour. The limit of detection for Salmonella Enteritidis was determined to be $10^6$ CFU/mL in both PBS buffer and milk samples. The assay sensitivity was not significantly affected by milk matrix. Our results showed that it would be possible for employing the SPR biosensor to detect Salmonella Enteritidis in near real-time.
