Abstract

Abstract In this paper, a comparison between different configurations of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensors has been theoretically conducted to improve the performance of the designed biosensor. The proposed biosensor configurations contain zirconium nitride (ZrN) as an alternative plasmonic material, which comprises different perovskite materials (KNbO3, LiTaO3, LiNbO3, SrTiO3, and BaTiO3) in the visible region. Depending on the study calculations, the reflection spectra of the suggested designs were studied under the angular interrogation mode based on Fresnel coefficients for the transverse magnetic polarized light. The numerical findings demonstrated that the SPR biosensor, which has the configuration of [Prism/BaTiO3/ZrN/BaTiO3/Biosensing medium], represents the best biosensor due to its higher sensitivity and minimum reflectivity values. Meanwhile, sensitivity could receive 179.58 (deg/RIU). Therefore, it is believed that the proposed SPR biosensor designs could be promising through wide-ranging applications, specifically in biomedical, chemical, and environmental protection.
