“…D-and L-enantiomers of three kinds of chiral amino acids in aqueous solution were successfully distinguished. Zhou et al [27] incorporated graphene with a THz metasurface into a microfluidic cell for sensitive biosensing, and they found that 100 nm DNA short sequences could be detected by this method. This research has made breakthrough progress, but the structure design and experimental method are complicated.…”
A terahertz (THz) all-dielectric metasurface with crescent cylinder arrays for chiral drug sensing has been demonstrated. Through the multipole expansion method, we theoretically found that breaking the symmetry of the metasurface can excite higher-order resonance modes and provide stronger anisotropy as well as enhanced sensitivity for the surroundings, which gives a better sensing performance than lower-order resonance. Based on the frequency shift and transmittance at higher-order resonance, we carried out the sensing experiments on (R)-(â)-ibuprofen and (S)-(+)-ibuprofen solution on the surface of this metasurface sensor. We were able to monitor the concentrations of ibuprofen solutions, and the maximum sensitivity reached 60.42 GHz/mg. Furthermore, we successfully distinguished different chiral molecules such as (R)-(â)-ibuprofen and (S)-(+)-ibuprofen in the 5 ÎŒL trace amount of samples. The maximum differentiation was 18.75 GHz/mg. Our analysis confirms the applicability of this crescent all-dielectric metasurface to enhanced sensing and detection of chiral molecules, which provides new paths for the identification of biomolecules in a trace amount.
The concept of a quasiâbound state in a continuum (QBIC) has garnered significant attention in various fields such as sensing, communication, and optical switching. Within metasurfaces, QBICs offer a reliable platform that enables sensing capabilities through potent interactions between local electric fields and matter. Herein, a novel terahertz (THz) biosensor based on the integration of QBIC with graphene is reported, which enables multidimensional detection. The proposed biosensor is distinctive because of its ability to discern concentrations of ethanol and Nâmethylpyrrolidone in a wide range from 100% to 0%, by monitoring the changes in the resonance intensity and maximum wavelet coefficient. This approach demonstrates an excellent linear fit, which ensures robust quantitative analysis. The remarkable sensitivity of our biosensor enables it to detect minute changes in lowâconcentration solutions, with the lowest detection concentration value (LDCV) of 0.21 pg mLâ1. 2D wavelet coefficient intensity cards are effectively constructed through continuous wavelet transforms, which presents a more accurate approach for determining the concentration of the solution. Ultimately, the novel sensing platform offers a host of advantages, including heightened sensitivity and reusability. This pioneering approach establishes a new avenue for liquidâbased terahertz biosensing.
