This manuscript aims to analyze the effect of bariumtitanate (BaTiO3) and molybdenumdisulfide (MOS2) along with gold (Au) on the sensing application of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensors. The proposed multilayer structure has a BK7 prism, a bimetallic layer of Au, BaTiO3, and a MOS2 layer. BaTiO3 and MOS2 layers are used to improve the biosensor performance parameters by the Kretschmann configuration. The proposed configuration has enhanced the performance over the conventional sensor. The performance parameters like full width half maximum (FWHM), detection accuracy, and detection accuracy have been analyzed. The suggested biosensor can detect a wide range of analytes with an extensive refractive index range. The proposed sensor can be used to analyze chemical and biological analytes.
Food adulteration is a global concern, and developing countries are under serious threat owing to a lack of supervision and laws. Specially, milk adulterants can cause severe health risks, resulting in fatal diseases. Conventional and qualitative detection techniques are limited due to the more sophisticated way of milk adulteration and involve complexity in the processes. This paper used ultraviolet-visible-near infrared (UV-Vis-NIR) spectrophotometric measurements technique to detect the urea concentration in the milk sample. Urea concentration was taken initially at the steps of 5% and then with 10% to mix with pure milk to measure the adulteration. Results showed that the absorbance spectrum increased proportionally in the Vis and NIR regions when we increased or added the amount of urea to milk. The proposed spectrophotometry method will be a successful basis for the screening of optical wavelength to help the researcher to find out the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) phenomenon where the light and matter interaction is maximum.
This experimental work presented the reduced graphene oxide (rGO) immobilized etched fiber Bragg grating (eFBG) sensor to improve refractometric sensitivity. The effectiveness of the proposed sensor is evaluated with cigarette smoke as well as incense smoke by monitoring the shift in the resonant peak of the reflection spectra of the sensor with the interrogator. An increase in the interaction of the evanescent field adsorbing with the smoke caused by the rGO layer increases the sensing performance. Raman spectroscopy, XRD, and field emission scanning electron microscope are used for characterization of the sensor.
In this work, mathematical models of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensors are proposed. The proposed sensor with transition metal dichalcogenides (such as PtSe2) constructed of two-dimensional materials (BP and WS2). Traditional SPR biosensors are also discussed. In the field of SPR sensors, researchers have been very interested in 2-D materials. Figure of merit (F.O.M) and sensitivity are two important parts of SPR sensors, and it has been talked about with analyte ranges from 1.330 to 1.36. The proposed sensor was found to be most sensitive when it had just one layer of Platinum diselenide (PtSe2) and two layers of black phosphorous (BP). Here, a heterostructure made of BK7 Prism/Ag/PtSe2/WS2/BP is proposed as a much sensitive SPR biosensor with a Kretschmann configuration at a wavelength of 633 nm. The attenuated total reflection (ATR) method is used to measure the sensors' sensitivity, figure of merit (F.O.M.), Minimum reflections (Rmin) and detection accuracy (D.A). The proposed sensor has many uses in biomedical, chemical, and bio-sensing fields.
In this paper, sensitivity analysis has been carried out of TiO2 coated fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor for chemical detection. FBG has been fabricated by Cu-vapour laser based second harmonic generation technique. Then TiO2 is coated in home on FBG sensing head by targeting the 99.99% pure TiO2 material by electron beam gun evaporation system. The thickness of TiO2 has been numerically optimized irrespective of FBG design parameters, before depositing the material on FBG sensing head. It has been found that the proposed sensor is quite able to sense a minute change of adulteration in chemical with an accuracy of more than 0.01 ppm. After developing and testing of the sensor, the fieldwork will be decided at Indian coal mines for their possible deployment in coal fields.
Special featured Fibre Bragg grating has a great potential to meet the demand of development of highly sensitive optical fibre technology based chemical sensors working in harsh environment. Fibre Bragg grating assisted in between directional coupler could be significantly tuned the power coupling efficiency between two high refractive index layers. In this paper standard si-based FBG has been fabricated with square shape of apodization profile based on Cu-vapour laser and second harmonics generation based technique. Then FBG has been incorporated in between two high refractive index material followed by substrate in either side with low refractive index sensing layer. Finite difference method (FDM) based MATLAB program has been developed to extract the TE/TM modes supported by this proposed composite planar waveguide structure. Sensitivity has been calculated by b − λ graph technique for both angular/wavelength interrogation cases.
