In this paper, a grating-coupled surface plasmon resonance concentration sensor employing a gold and indium tin oxide (Au/ITO) nanoparticle composite instead of metal is proposed. The structure and material parameters of the sensor are discussed and analyzed. Taking the ethylene glycol concentration as an example, the influence of the nanocomposite on the wave vector matching, the influence of the refractive index of the medium to be tested and the influence of the concentration on the refractive index were analyzed in detail. The experimental results show that when the sensor is used for the measurement of ethylene glycol concentration, the correlation coefficient between the concentration and the refractive index is as high as 0.999995. The fitting curve and data correlation are good, and the sensitivity has a good linear relationship with the sensitivity. Therefore, the sensor structure proposed in this paper can be used to accurately measure the trace concentration of liquid, and its sensing mode has certain reference value for the measurement of general trace fluid concentration.

Ultrasensitive, rapid, and reliable biomolecular sensing is essential for biomedical diagnostics, requiring real-time monitoring and detection of trace samples. Optical sensing, particularly plasmonic biosensing, meets these demands through noninvasive, high-sensitivity detection based on the interaction between light and molecules. Here, we present novel plasmonic metamaterial-based sensing strategy, utilizing the circular dichroism (CD) response of grating-coupled surface plasmon resonance (SPR) from chiral nanoparticle grating structure (i.

The number of peer-reviewed publications that feature biosensor data increases every year. A search of PubMed using common technique terminology, including bio-layer interferometry (BLI), surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and grating-coupled interferometry (GCI) generated more than 2500 scientific papers from 2022. Compared to 2009, when David Myszka and Rebecca Rich presented their most recent review of biosensor literature (Rich and Myszka, 2011), this number has nearly doubled.

The surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technique has been widely applied to biosensing technologies for the rapid quantification of biomolecules without enzyme and fluorescent labeling. However, the conventional prism-coupling SPR method generally has a detection area of a few mm2, and the large contribution of the background signal forms a barrier to highly sensitive detection. Based on a highly spatially resolved SPR method, the present study constructed a scanning GC-SPR imaging instrument using an objective lens with a high numerical aperture and a plasmonic chip that could be used for grating-coupled SPR.
