Abstract

In this chapter, the use of our interferometers as biological sensors is proposed and analyzed. A theoretical comparison of the sensitivity of both plasmonic and magnetoplasmonic interferometers and SPR sensors is shown.

Notes

  1. 1.

    In this chapter we are going to refer to the magnetical modulation of the SPP wavevector as \(\Delta ^m{k}_{x}\), since we want to clearly distinguish the variations induced by the change in the refractive index (denoted with superindex n) from those induced by the magnetic field (denoted with superindex m).

  2. 2.

    It has to be noticed that in our theoretical analysis, the propagation distance of the SPP in the plasmonic system (\(L_{sp}\)) is not the same than that of the MP system (denoted therefore as \(L^{mp}_{sp}\)), due to the presence of the Co layer. The same is going to happen then for the distance between the slit and the groove (d or \(d^{mp}\) respectively).
