Abstract
A high contrast grating-based surface Plasmon resonance-based biosensor with high detection accuracy has been
proposed. High sensitivity has been obtained by using a high value of dielectric material. The detection accuracy and
sensitivity are optimized utilizing the metal layer thickness and its width in the continuation of periodic gratings. With the
help of the finite difference time domain (FDTD), the enhanced values are obtained and compared to the photonic crystal
waveguide and surface plasmon resonance sensor. The proposed sensor also overlaps the fabrication constraints of
various metals as a high value of dielectric material has been employed.
