Abstract

We present spectrometer-based wavelength interrogation surface plasmon resonance imaging (SPRi) without mechanical scanning. A polarized broadband light source illuminates an object via a gold-coated prism; the reflected light is spatially modulated by a digital mirror device (DMD) and then measured with a spectrometer. Reflectance spectral images are reconstructed via the Hadamard transform (HT), and a refractive index (RI) map is visualized from the reflectance spectral images by analyzing the resonance peak shift of the spectrum at each image pixel. We demonstrate the feasibility of our method by evaluating the resolution, sensitivity, and dynamic detection range, experimentally obtained as ∼2.203 × 10⁻⁶ RI unit (RIU), ∼3,407 nm/RIU, and ∼0.1403 RIU, respectively. Furthermore, simulations are performed to validate the experimental results.
