Total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) is developed as a surface selective method to allow the environment of a liquid/solid interface to be probed by fluorescent molecules which are adsorbed from solution. The method has been used to detect pyrene sorbed to an octadecylsilane-derivatized fused-silica plate and resolve its spectral emission so that vibronic intensity ratios can be calculated and the surface environment characterized. Adsorption equilibria of the fluorescent probe to the surface and the depth of penetration of the evanescent excitation beam provide the basis for predicting interference from probe molecules in the solution phase. These predictions were validated by replacing the solution overlaying the alkylated silica interface with saturated vapor and comparing the apparent surface environments.

AbstractA dielectric step-index optical fiber with tube-like profile is considered, being positioned with a small gap on top of a dielectric slab waveguide. We propose a 2.5-D hybrid analytical/numerical coupled mode model for the evanescent excitation of the tube through semi-guided waves propagating in the slab at oblique angles. The model combines the directional polarized modes supported by the slab with analytic solutions for the TE-, TM-, and orbital-angular-momentum (OAM) modes of the tube-shaped fiber. Implementational details of the scheme are discussed, complemented by finite-element simulations for verification purposes. Our results include configurations with resonant in-fiber excitation of OAM modes with large orbital angular momentum and strong field enhancement.
