A Novel Mercury and Gallium Sulfide Assisted Surface Plasmon Resonance Sensor with Enhanced Refractive Index Sensitivity
摘要
The article exhibits the detection of biomolecules in urine using mercury sulfide (HgS)-gallium sulfide (GaS)-integrated surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor for detecting the biomolecular interaction. In this work, we propose a SPR sensors with two structures, such as Structure 1 and Structure 2 that uses Kretschmann configuration, which offers a feature of surface plasmons with the silver (Ag). To analyze the sensor’s performance, the transfer matrix method is employed along with the angular interrogation technique. The optimization of the layers’ thicknesses is found using the iteration procedure. Then, the study shows the impact of the proposed structure in SPR sensor by analyzing the performance for different structures that are developed with the considered layers. The numerical outcomes confirm that the highest obtained parameters are sensitivity of 474.08 and 461.26
