High-performance terahertz biosensor utilizing a hybrid one-dimensional photonic crystal with liquid crystal and graphene components.

ABSTRACT: In recent decades, advances in biophotonics research have led to the development of numerous novel applications, particularly in the realm of diagnostic tools. Among these, one-dimensional photonic crystal biosensors have emerged as frequently utilized instruments for disease diagnosis and sensing. A significant body of research has focused on enhancing the efficiency of these biosensors. Recently, integration of Graphene and liquid crystal into a hybrid structure has been identified as a promising approach for the advancement of optical devices. This study presents a novel one-dimensional photonic crystal biosensor designed using the Kretschmann configuration, which incorporates Graphene nanolayers and a liquid crystal layer. The transfer matrix method was employed to calculate the projec
