چکیده

A theoretical study on a novel planar waveguide surface Plasmon Biosensor is presented in this paper. The proposed biosensor has a configuration similar to the Otto excitation mechanism for surface Plasmon polaritons. The performance of the device with respect to key system parameters such as gap-width and device length is investigated using an eigenmode solver with perfectly matched layers (PML). Device resolution of 2.3 x 10(-6) RIU has been demonstrated for an aqueous analyte.

Optimization of Sensitivity and Stability of Gold/Silver bi-Layer Thin Films Used in Surface Plasmon Resonance Chips

The aim of this study is experimental assay of sensitivity and stability of a bimetallic silver/gold SPR sensor chip. This chip utilizes the sensitivity of the silver and the stability of the gold. Moreover, the Silver layer (instead of usual Cr or Ti layer) was used as an adhesive intermediate layer between the Gold layer and the glass substrate. The optimization of the Gold/Silver thickness u...

Sensitivity Enhancement of Magneto-Optical Surface Plasmon Resonance (MOSPR) Biosensor

We present the optimization of a new material structure used as transducer in a MagnetoOptical Surface Plasmon Resonance (MOSPR) biosensor. The MOSPR sensor is a modification of the standard Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) biosensor, which arises from the introduction of a ferromagnetic metal layer with Magneto-Optical (MO) activity together with the usual gold layer of SPR biosensors. Such com...
