  • Fluorescence-enhanced bead
    Publication number: 20030170447
    Abstract: The fluorescence-enhanced bead of the present invention is intended to achieve a larger surface area and easy treatment, by making a minute spherical shape material into a bead by applying coating similar to fluorescence-enhanced chips onto the surface of the spherical shape material. That is, metal layer is formed on a spherical shape nucleus and a dielectric layer is formed on this metal layer. This easily enhances the intensity of fluorescence generated from a fluorescent material on the surface of this dielectric layer.
