Abstract
The present paper proposes a Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) sensor utilizing Twisted Bilayer Graphene (TBG)- Hexagonal Boron Nitride (hBN) heterostructures to enhance the Goos-Hänchen (GH) shift. The study presents a theoretical demonstration of the adjustability of GH shift via tuning the TBG twist angle, the number of TBG layers, and the thickness of hBN, respectively. The two-dimensional twisted bilayer graphene twist angle effectively promotes the sensitivity of the sensor. With a relative twist angle of 76.87°, the sensitivity of this sensor structure is remarkably enhanced to 1.8×108 μm/RIU. The outcomes of this investigation offer a theoretical underpinning for the development of new high-sensitivity biosensors.
