Abstract

A silver based surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor with dielectric-graphene composite film is presented. The influences of the dielectric layer and graphene on sensitivity and other sensing properties are theoretically calculated and then comprehensively discussed. The refractive index sensitivities for composite silver film based SPR sensors with graphene and dielectric layers could be increased by 29% and 288% more than that of monolayer silver film based SPR sensors, respectively. Further, the sensitivity could be enhanced by 202% when combining the graphene and dielectric layers together. Considering the high adsorptive capacity of graphene for biochemical molecules, the composite silver film with both a dielectric layer and graphene would have great potential application in biochemical sensing fields. Further, bovine serum albumin protein was successfully used to verify the biochemical sensing ability of the proposed SPR sensor. The shift of resonance angle is nearly 3.1 fold that of monolayer silver based SPR sensors.
