Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has underscored the essential need for quick and precise virus detection techniques, to stop the virus from spreading. In this paper, we have proposed a brand-new graphene metasurface sensor for effective COVID-19 detection. We have used graphene metasurfaces to increase the sensitivity of the proposed sensor. The suggested sensor architecture takes advantage of the plasmonic characteristics of graphene metasurfaces to enable the detection of particular COVID-19-related biomarkers. Strong light-graphene interactions are achieved through careful tailoring of the graphene metasurface geometry, resulting in improved sensing capabilities. The suggested graphene metasurface sensor has a number of benefits, including its small size, low cost, and ability to work with current detecting systems. Additionally, its label-free detection methodology does away with the need for laborious sample preparation stages, enabling quick on-site testing. The sensor's performance is compared to current state-of-the-art detection techniques in order to demonstrate its higher sensitivity and effectiveness. The sensor achieves a maximum sensitivity of sensitivity of 600 GHz/RIU and an excellent FOM value of 4.959 RIU−1.
期刊介绍:
Plasmonics is an international forum for the publication of peer-reviewed leading-edge original articles that both advance and report our knowledge base and practice of the interactions of free-metal electrons, Plasmons.
Topics covered include notable advances in the theory, Physics, and applications of surface plasmons in metals, to the rapidly emerging areas of nanotechnology, biophotonics, sensing, biochemistry and medicine. Topics, including the theory, synthesis and optical properties of noble metal nanostructures, patterned surfaces or materials, continuous or grated surfaces, devices, or wires for their multifarious applications are particularly welcome. Typical applications might include but are not limited to, surface enhanced spectroscopic properties, such as Raman scattering or fluorescence, as well developments in techniques such as surface plasmon resonance and near-field scanning optical microscopy.
