چکیده
Abstract The possibility of establishing a novel technique for reliably accessing glycemic information in non-invasive, easy to implement method at THz frequencies via the fingernail bed is investigated. nail bed’s major content blood its various glucose levels and also partially protected from environmental conditions by plate, making it desirable platform non-invasive sensing. study based on 2D computational electromagnetics (EM) model layered COMSOL Multiphysics, where required dielectric function (i.e. permittivity conductivity) plate measured using THz-Time-Domain- Spectroscopy (THz-TDS), glucose-dependend functions are taken available experimental data literature. From this material multipole Cole-Cole established both, bed, latter varied 3.0-19.0 mmol/l. A numerical analysis reflectometry frequency range 0.1-2.0 revealed that reflectance spectra sensitive proving accurate sensing may become feasible around 0.2-0.4 THz.
