Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is a common and useful measurement technique to perform fast and sensitive optical detection. SPR instrumentations usually comprise optical systems of mirrors and lenses which are quite expensive and impractical for point-of-care applications. In this work, we presented a novel and compact SPR device called SPECTRA, designed as a spectrophotometer add-on with a grating coupling configuration. The device is conceived as a marketable solution to perform quick SPR measurements in grating configuration without the requirement of complex instrumentation. The device can be customized either in a vertical structure to reach lower incident light angles, or in a horizontal configuration, which is suitable for SPR analysis using liquid solutions. The SPECTRA performance was evaluated through SPR measurements in typical applications. The vertical SPECTRA system was employed to detect different functionalization molecules on gold 720 nm-period grating devices. Meanwhile, the horizontal SPECTRA configuration was exploited to carry out fluid-dynamic measurements using a microfluidic cell with glycerol solutions at increasing concentrations to account for different refractive indexes. The experimental tests confirmed that the SPECTRA design is suitable for SPR measurements, demonstrating its capability to detect the presence of analytes and changes in surface properties both in static and dynamic set-ups. |
