    摘要: A deformable optical element includes an elastically deformable lens. Electrical contacts are directly attached to the elastically deformable lens and configured to receive an applied voltage. The electrical contacts have opposing surfaces configured to develop electrostatic forces in response to the applied voltage. The electrostatic forces deform the elastically deformable lens to create a predetermined optical effect.

    摘要: A light amplifying structure 100 for Raman spectroscopy includes a a resonant cavity 108. A distance between a first portion 102B and a second portion 102A of the structure 100 forming the resonant cavity 108 is used to amplify excitation light emitted from a light source 420 into the resonant cavity 108 at a first resonant frequency of the resonant cavity 108. Also, the resonant cavity 108 amplifies radiated light radiated from a predetermined molecule excited by the excitation light in the resonant cavity at a second resonant frequency of the resonant cavity 108.

    摘要: A surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) apparatus, system and method employ a plurality of nanorods configured to vibrate. The apparatus includes the nanorods having tips at free ends opposite an end attached to a substrate. The tips are configured to adsorb an analyte and to vibrate at a vibration frequency. The apparatus further includes a vibration source configured to vibrate the free ends of the nanorods at the vibration frequency in a back-and-forth motion. Vibration of the nanorods is configured to facilitate detection of a Raman scattering signal emitted by the analyte adsorbed on the nanorod tips. The system further includes a synchronous detector configured to receive the Raman signal and to be gated cooperatively with the vibration of the nanorods. The method includes inducing a vibration of the nanorods, illuminating the vibrating tips to produce a Raman signal, and detecting the Raman signal using the detector.
