Since the development almost a decade ago of the first biosensor based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR), the use of this technique has increased steadily. In this study, we theoretically investigated the sensing character of SPR sensor with reflection type metallic with Rigorous Coupled Wave Analysis (RCWA) method, and the mechanism is analyzed by the field distribution. It is found that the sensitivity of negative diffraction order, which goes higher quickly as the resonant angle increases, is much greater than that of positive diffraction order.

We have proposed a biosensor using a one-dimensional (1D) photonic crystal with surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect. The wavelength interrogation method has been used to study the performance of the sensor. Numerical simulations based on rigorous coupled wave analysis (RCWA) method show that the sensitivity of the optimized sensor is 137 nm/RIU (per refractive index unit).

In this work, a novel approach to realize a plasmonic sensor is presented. The proposed optical sensor device is designed, manufactured, and experimentally tested. Two photo-curable resins are used to 3D print a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor. Both numerical and experimental analyses are presented in the paper. The numerical and experimental results confirm that the 3D printed SPR sensor presents performances, in term of figure of merit (FOM), very similar to other SPR sensors made using plastic optical fibers (POFs). For the 3D printed sensor, the measured FOM is 13.6 versus 13.4 for the SPR-POF configuration. The cost analysis shows that the 3D printed SPR sensor can be manufactured at low cost (∼15 €) that is competitive with traditional sensors. The approach presented here allows to realize an innovative SPR sensor showing low-cost, 3D-printing manufacturing free design and the feasibility to be integrated with other optical devices on the same plastic planar support, thus opening undisclosed future for the optical sensor systems.
