Abstract
Instruments for molecular detection at the nano-molar to femto-molar concentration level include a longitudinal capillary column () of known wall thickness and diameter. The column () contains a medium () including a target molecule () and a plurality of optically interactive dielectric beads () on the order of about 10meters up to about 10meters and/or metal nanoparticles () on the order of 1-500 nm. A flow inducer () causes longitudinal movement of the target molecule within the column (). A laser () introduces energy laterally with respect to the column () at a wavelength and in a direction selected to have a resonant mode within the capillary column wall () and couple to the medium (). A detector () is positioned to detect Raman scattering occurring along the column () due to the presence of the target molecule.
