Abstract: A nonlinear optical device includes two coupling systems. A coupling coefficient between the two coupling systems is regulated and controlled. During operation, the pump light input from a straight waveguide is coupled into the second coupling system through the first coupling system and obtains great resonance enhancement in the second coupling system, so it is ensured that the second coupling system is in a high energy state. For signal light input from the same end of the straight waveguide, the signal light enters a resonator of the second coupling system through the coupling between the first and second coupling systems. A nonlinear effect of the system mainly occurs in the resonator of the second coupling system because in the resonator of the second coupling system, the pump light is in a great resonance enhancement. The entire resonator is in a high energy state.

Abstract: A method for a selective detection of L-tryptophan (L-Trp) using formaldehyde as a medium is disclosed. The method includes preparation of a copper sulfide nanosheets-chitosan/acidified functionalized multi-wall carbon nanotubes (CuS NS—CS/F-MWCNTs) composite material, preparation of a composite film-modified electrode CuS NS—CS/F-MWCNTs/GCE, and a detection of the L-Trp. Since oxidation peaks of L-Trp and L-tyrosine (L-Tyr) overlap and are difficult to separate, the present invention provides a method for a highly selective detection of L-Trp through the Pictet-Spengler reaction of formaldehyde (HCHO) with L-Trp, in which the oxidation peak potential of L-Trp is shifted to 0.82 V and the oxidation peak potential of L-Tyr is 0.63 V, thereby effectively avoiding the interference of L-Tyr. The CuS NS—CS/F-MWCNTs/GCE is applied to detect L-Trp in the formaldehyde medium without any interference from L-Tyr or other amino acids with 50-fold concentrations.
