Surface plasmon resonance imaging using a high numerical aperture microscope objective.
We designed, constructed, and tested a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) microscope using a high numerical aperture objective from a commercially available inverted optical microscope. Such a configuration, combined with various methods to shorten the surface plasmon propagation length, achieves diffraction-limited spatial resolution in the transverse direction and near-diffraction-limited resolu...
متن کاملDesign of a high-numerical-aperture miniature microscope objective for an endoscopic fiber confocal reflectance microscope.
An endoscopic confocal microscope requires a high-performance, miniaturized microscope objective. We present the design of a miniature water-immersion microscope objective that is approximately 10 times smaller in length than a typical commercial objective. The miniature objective is 7 mm in outer diameter and 21 mm in length (from object to image). It is used in a fiber confocal reflectance mi...
متن کاملHigh numerical aperture microendoscope objective for a fiber confocal reflectance microscope.
A disposable high numerical aperture microendoscope objective has been designed, fabricated, and tested for use with a fiber confocal reflectance microscope. The objective uses high precision LIGA fabricated components to integrate imaging components and hydraulic suction lines into a housing that measures only 3.85 mm in outer diameter and 14.65 mm in length. The hydraulics are used to transla...
متن کاملSecond-harmonic generation in a metal-clad nonlinear optical waveguide.
Efficient optical nonlinear effects in waveguides play an important role in integrated photonic functionalities. The dispersion characteristics need to be well designed to satisfy the phase-matching condition of the interacting waves in waveguides. Here we demonstrate a novel phase-matching process of second-harmonic generation (SHG) in a symmetrical metal-cladding optical waveguide (SMCOW) wit...
متن کاملEfficient waveguide-coupling of metal-clad nanolaser cavities.
Many remarkable semiconductor-based nanolaser cavities using metal have been reported in past few years. However, the efficient coupling of these small cavities to waveguides still remains a large challenge. Here, we show highly efficient coupling of a semiconductor-based metal-clad nanolaser cavity operating in the fundamental dielectric cavity mode to a silicon-on-insulator waveguide. By engi...
