Abstract
In this study, a biosensing scenario is developed for monitoring blood quality based on the detection of blood hemoglobin concentration. The procedure involves considering the blood sample as the dielectric with different refractive indexes for different concentrations of hemoglobin. Usually, the sensitivity to design parameters is the major issue with the metasurface-based detection. To address this issue, a three-layer graphene-based wave absorber is designed and modeled using passive circuit elements. The major idea behind this work is to maximize the device sensitivity against the blood sample. The research methodology involves impedance matching between the device and the surrounding environment, while full-wave simulation is also performed and compared to ensure circuit view accuracy. The findings suggest that the proposed graphene-based absorber can efficiently monitor blood quality via dual absorption peaks. The simulation results extracted from impedance matching and the full-wave method indicate frequency shifts of the second absorption peak. These shift values are interpreted based on hemoglobin concentration. Additionally, ample analyses are provided to show the reliability of the proposed absorber against geometrical aspects, incident angle, external stimulation, and the graphene electron relaxation time.
