Abstract
A surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor with a prism array made by silicon microfabrication techniques is proposed. We fabricated silicon prisms arrayed in 200 µ m in pitch by anisotropic wet etching for deflecting light. We measured SPR curves in specimen of air, water and ethanol using near-infrared laser light (1550 nm) and obtained the SPR dip in each measurement. We fabricated a flexible flap, which was actuated by Lorentz force, to change the incident angle. The silicon prism chip was attached on the flap, the SPR curve was measured by scanning the incident angle of laser light with the flap.
