Theoretical model of the influence of oxide overlayer thickness on the performance of a surface plasmon fibre-optic sensor

Original language description

Fibre-optic surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensors have been proven to be useful tool in various measurement tasks where the miniaturization, compactness and low cost are the essential requirements. Recently, it has been shown that the sensitivity of SPR sensor can be improved if the metallic layer used for surface plasmon excitation is covered by a high refractive index overlayer (for example oxide or semiconductor). The semiconductor layer can protect the metal against the oxidation, but when it is exposed to the atmosphere, a thin oxide layer can be formed on its top surface. This fact leads to a general question, how an oxide layer (naturally or thermally grown) affects the sensing. The paper deals with the influence of the oxide layer on the sensor performance. The analyzed structure consists of thin gold film covered by partially oxidized silicon overlayer.
