Abstract Hybrid gold nanostructures seeded into nanotextured zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoflowers (NFs) were created for novel biosensing applications. The selected ‘spotted NFs’ had a 30-nm-thick nanoparticle (AuNP) layer, chosen from range of AuNP thicknesses, sputtered onto the surface. generated nanohybrids, characterized by morphological, physical and structural analyses, uniformly AuNP-seeded ZnO NFs with an average length 2–3 μm. Selective capture molecular probes AuNPs was evidence specific...
The performance of sensing surfaces highly relies on nanostructures to enhance their sensitivity and specificity. Herein, nanostructured zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films various thicknesses were coated glass p-type silicon substrates using a sol-gel spin-coating technique. deposited characterized for morphological, structural, optoelectronic properties by high-resolution measurements. X-ray diffraction analyses revealed that the have c-axis orientation display peaks refer ZnO, which exhibits...
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), a glycoprotein hormone secreted from the placenta, is key molecule that indicates pregnancy. Here, we have designed cost-effective, label-free, in situ point-of-care (POC) immunosensor to estimate hCG using cuneated 25 nm polysilicon nanogap electrode. A tiny chip with dimensions of 20.5 × 12.5 mm was fabricated conventional lithography and size expansion techniques. Furthermore, sensing surface functionalized by (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane...
An improvement of gain in the long-wavelength band (L-band) is observed by double passing forward amplified spontaneous emission and signal erbium-doped fiber (EDF) using a circulator, unlike conventional single pass amplification. A enhancement as high 11 dB obtained for 1570-nm with an input power -20 dBm at 98 mW pump power. However, noise figure penalty about 2 observed.
A gain-clamping technique for the long wavelength band (L-band) erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) is presented. It uses a single Bragg grating (FBG) on input side of (EDF) to inject portion backward conventional (C-band) amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) back into system. The use narrow-band (NB) FBG has shown better performance in clamped-gain level and noise figure compared broad-band FBG. gain NB set up clamped at 15.4 dB with variation less than 0.3 an power as high 0 dBm.
A new double-pass long wavelength band erbium-doped fiber amplifier with enhanced noise figure characteristics is demonstrated by adding a short length of forward pumped (EDF) in front amplifier. Compared the conventional amplifier, provides improvement about 0.8 to 6.0 dB over flat-gain region from 1568 1600 nm. Since optical circulator prevents amplified signal and backward spontaneous emission propagating into EDF, population inversion input part hardly affected intense lights, therefore,...
The creation of an appropriate thin film is important for the development novel sensing surfaces, which will ultimately enhance properties and output high-performance sensors. In this study, we have fabricated characterized zinc oxide (ZnO) films on silicon substrates, were hybridized with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to obtain ZnO-Aux (x = 10, 20, 30, 40 50 nm) hybrid structures different thicknesses. Nanoscale imaging by field emission scanning electron microscopy revealed increasing...
