  • Patent number: 8279436
    Abstract: Disclosed is a trace detection device of a biological and chemical analyte, including a metal substrate, a periodic metal nanostructure on the metallic substrate, a dielectric layer on the periodic metal nanostructure, and a continuous metal film on the dielectric layer. Tuning the thickness of the dielectric layer and/or the continuous metal film to meet the laser wavelength can shift the absorption peak wavelength of the sensor, thereby further enhancing the Raman signals of the analyte molecules.

  • Patent number: 7957250
    Abstract: A micro optical head is provided, which provides sub-wavelength focusing spot and very long depth of focus. The optical head includes a transparent substrate, an opaque film, and at least one sub-wavelength annular channel. After coherent light transmits the transparent substrate supporting the optical head and passes through the appropriately designed sub-wavelength annular channel, the transmitted light can overcome the diffraction limit, and the transmission energy is improved efficiently. The transmitted light converges after a certain distance behind the optical head and forms a sub-wavelength-scale beam that maintains a very long distance without divergence.

  • Publication number: 20110036818
    Abstract: An optical etching device for laser machining is provided and includes a laser light source and an optical head. The laser light source emits an incident beam. The optical head includes a transparent substrate, an opaque film and a sub-wavelength annular channel. The laser energy tolerance of the transparent substrate ranges from 8 J/cm2 to 12 J/cm2. The opaque film has a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The transparent substrate is adhered to the first surface. The sub-wavelength annular channel is formed in the opaque film and extends from the first surface to the second surface so that the incident beam from the transparent substrate generates a surface plasma wave on the opaque film.

  • Patent number: 7792006
    Abstract: The present invention provides an optical head with a single or multiple sub-wavelength light beams, which can be used in arenas such as photolithography, optical storage, optical microscopy, to name a few. The present invention includes a transparent substrate, a thin film, and a surface structure with sub-wavelength surface profile. The incident light transmits through the transparent substrate, forms a surface plasma wave along the sub-wavelength aperture located within the thin film, and finally re-emits through spatial coupling with the sub-wavelength profile of the surface structure. As the coupled re-emitting light beam or light beams can maintain the waist less than that of the diffraction limit for a few micrometers out of the surface with sub-wavelength profile in many cases, this invention can have applications ranging from micro or nano manufacturing, metrology, and manipulation by using light beams with waist smaller than the diffraction limit.
