摘要: We report numerical simulation and hyperspectral Raman imaging of three index-guiding solid-core photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) different air-cladding microstructures to assess their respective potential for evanescent-field spectroscopy, with an emphasis on achieving surface-enhanced scattering (SERS) over the entire fiber length. Suspended-core PCF consisting a silica core surrounded by large air channels conjoined thin web is most robust SERS-active PCFs, demonstrated detection sensitivity 1x10(-10) M R6G in aqueous solution only approximately 7.3 microL sampling volume.
