- Abstract
- We investigate the effect of the cross-sectional profile of an array of metallic nanowires on the feasibility
of a localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) biosensor. Calculations were performed using rigorous
coupled-wave analysis with an emphasis on the extinction properties of the LSPR structure. The results
indicate that the nanowire structure, particularly that of a T-profile, delivers an extremely linear sensing
performance over a wide range of the target refractive index with much enhanced sensitivity. The
extinction-based LSPR structure also involves a relatively large dimension and thus is expected to
provide a feasible biosensor using current semiconductor technology.
