Abstract
The metal-ligand complex tris(2,2′-bipyridine)ruthenium(II) chloride (Ru probe) displays a broad emission spectrum ranging from 540 to 730 nm. The emission spectra of Ru probe were measured when placed on top of a one-dimensional photonic crystal (1DPC), which supports both Bloch surface wave (BSW) and internal modes for wavelengths below 640 nm and only internal modes above 640 nm. The S-polarized emission spectra, with the electric vector parallel to the 1DPC surface, were found to be strongly dependent on the observation angle through the coupling prism. Also, the usual single broad-emission spectrum of Ru probe on glass was converted into two or more narrow-band-spectrum on the 1DPC, with emission band maxima dependent on the observation angle. The two S-polarized emission band peaks for Ru probe were found to be consistent with coupling to the BSW and first internal mode (IM1) of the 1DPC. The same spectral shifts and changes in emission maxima were observed by using Kretschmann and reverse Kretschmann illuminations. As the coupling requires the emitter to be in proximity with the photonic structure, we calculated near- and far-field distributions of a dipole directly located on the 1DPC surface. Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) simulations were performed to confirm fluorophore coupling to the BSW and internal modes (IMs). Both the measured and simulated results showed that IM coupled emission is significant. Coupling to the IM mode occurred at longer wavelengths where the 1DPC did not support a BSW. These results demonstrate that a simple Bragg grating, without a BSW mode, can be used for detection of surface-bound fluorophores.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
