Apparatus for single-molecule detection |
摘要 |
An apparatus for detecting an object capable of emitting light. The apparatus includes a light source and a waveguide. The waveguide includes a core layer and a first cladding layer. At least one nanowell is formed in at least the first cladding layer. The apparatus further includes a light detector. The light detector can detect a light emitted from a single molecule object contained in the at least one nanowell. |

1. A single molecule detection apparatus, comprising:
a) a waveguide comprising:
a core layer; anda first cladding layer made of a dielectric material, whereinat least one nanowell is formed in at least the first cladding layer, andan upper opening of the at least one nanowell is larger than a bottom of the at least one nanowell; b) a first opaque protection layer arranged over the first cladding layer without extending into the at least one nanowell; c) a second opaque protection layer arranged below the waveguide, the second opaque protection layer having a nanostructured metal pattern; and d) at least one light detector. |
