In this paper, we have proposed a new multilayer structure and investigated its performance as a chemical sensor utilizing surface Plasmon resonance. Our proposed design consists of a Black phosphorus layer sandwiched between a metal layer and a Graphene layer, and Blue Phosphorene/MoS2 heterostructure layers placed over it, and the sensing layer containing the analyte placed on top. A CaF2 prism in the Kretschmann configuration is employed to excite SPR, and the angle interrogation method is used for analysis. Sellmeier equations calculate the reflectivity and other parameters of the multilayer design. We also study the effect of the combination of BP and metal interlayer. Analysis of the proposed design shows significantly improved sensitivity compared to recent SPR based sensors. In this paper, the sensitivity of 466o/RIU is obtained with silver metal, BP, graphene and BlueP/MoS2 Layers SPR sensor.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
