Abstract
- In this paper, a simple two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystal (PhC) plus-shaped resonator is suggested to detect different cancer cells as well as urine glucose. A novel biosensor design is presented that features a plus-shaped PhC resonator capable of detecting cancerous cells in human skin, cervix, blood, adrenal glands and breast, as well as detecting glucose levels in human urine to diagnose the likelihood of diabetes. Our biosensor boasts of an impressive quality factor of 307 for cancerous skin cells and 670.6 for glucose concentration in the blood. In addition, the device offers a maximum sensitivity of 750 nm/RIU for detecting various cancerous cells and 2420 nm/RIU for glucose in human urine. By positioning the resonator and the waveguide in a way that enables light to resonate in the middle of the structure and pass to the output terminal, we were able to focus on the absorption rate rather than the transmission. As a result, the maximum glucose and cancerous cell absorption rates reach 87.1% and 89.8%, respectively. Our unique yet simple sensor structure offers exciting new possibilities for detecting different cancerous cells and glucose concentrations, while the impressive sensitivity and quality factor make it an exceptional candidate for a wide range of biosensing applications.
