  • Surface plasmon enhanced fluorescence measurement device and surface plasmon enhanced fluorescence measurement method
    Patent number: 10495575
    Abstract: The present invention pertains to a surface plasmon enhanced fluorescence analysis device and a surface plasmon enhanced fluorescence measurement method which use GC-SPFS and make it possible to detect a substance to be detected with high sensitivity. This surface plasmon enhanced fluorescence measurement device has: a light source for irradiating the diffraction grating of a chip with excited light; a polarizer for removing linearly polarized light from fluorescent light emitted from a fluorescent substance on the diffraction grating; and a photodetector for detecting the linearly polarized light removed by the polarizer.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 8, 2014
    Date of Patent: December 3, 2019
    Assignee: KONICA MINOLTA, INC.
    Inventors: Yukito Nakamura, Takatoshi Kaya, Kosuke Nagae, Akitoshi Nozaki, Fumio Nagai, Ryouta Ishikawa, Akiyuki Namatame
