Abstract
Graphene as a mono-atomic sheet has recently grabbed attention as a material with enormous properties. It has also been examined for enhancing absorbance in the current plasmonic structure. This has led to an increment in the sensitivity of the plasmonic sensors. In this paper, we present theoretical investigation of the novel graphene-based plasmonic metamaterial perfect absorber for biosensing applications. The simulation study performs the analysis of the novel plasmonic metamaterial absorber structure by adding coatings of graphene sheets. Each sheet of graphene enhances absorbance of the structure. In this study, we demonstrate three layers of graphene sheets lead to perfect absorbance (100%) for multiple bands in the visible and near-infrared regions. Furthermore, we also computed the sensitivity of the graphene-based proposed structure by varying the refractive index (RI) of the sensing region from 1.33–1.36 with RI change of 0.01. Proposed fabrication steps for realization of the device are also discussed.
