Micro ring resonators (MRR) based evanescent field biosensors have shown excellent potential in medical diagnostics due to their performance, scalability, and ability to integrate multiple sensors in a small area to detect various biomarkers simultaneously. The quest to improve the performance and feature size of such sensors has led to the development of cutting-edge photonic integrated circuits (PIC). However, chip-scale implementation of readout and data analysis still needs to be addressed adequately.

Inspired by metasurfaces' control over light fields, this study created a liquid microlens coated with a layer of Au@TiO, Core-Shell nanospheres. Utilizing the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect of Au@TiO, Core-Shell nanospheres, and the formation of photonic nanojets (PNJs), this study aimed to extend the imaging system's cutoff frequency, improve microlens focusing, enhance the capture capability of evanescent waves, and utilize nanospheres to improve the conversion of evanescent waves into propagating waves, thus boosting the liquid microlens's super-resolution capabilities. The finite difference time domain (FDTD) method analyzed the impact of parameters including nanosphere size, microlens sample contact width, and droplet's initial contact angle on super-resolution imaging.

Improving the sensitivity of biosensor has always the major challenge to measure lower detection concentration of biological samples. In this paper, a novel optical fiber surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor based on TiC MXene/GNRs synergistically highly enhanced sensitivity was proposed. The TiC MXene and GNRs were coated on the optical fiber sensing probe by the electrostatic layer-by-layer (ELBL) assembly method.
