Abstract

The hemoglobin concentration in the blood is a significant parameter in the field of medical diagnostics. In this article, a photonic crystal based micro ring resonator structure is proposed to analyze the hemoglobin concentration in blood. As the refractive index of blood possesses a linear relationship with the hemoglobin concentration, therefore the blood sample with different refractive indices can be analyzed to determine different hemoglobin concentrations. Here, the changes in the resonance wavelengths at the output port of the structure due to different blood analytes are verified using FDTD simulation method. The proposed structure possesses a high sensitivity of almost 700 nm/RIU or 2 nm/change in the hemoglobin concentration (g/dL).
