We have successfully carried out an experimental demonstration of an acoustic hyperlens that magnifies sub-wavelength objects by gradually converting evanescent waves into propagating waves," said Xiang Zhang, a principal investigator with Berkeley Lab's Materials Sciences Division and director of the Nano-scale Science and Engineering Center at the University of California, Berkeley.
Here several fiber-optic DNA biosensors based surface plasmon resonance (SPR) [2,49,50,51], ellipsometry, evanescent wave are depicted below.
The obtained spectra were corrected for the wavelength-dependent penetration depth of the evanescent wave as well as for the baseline by the Spectrum v.
