Abstract
In this paper, we present the main results of the numerical calculation of the bound states in the continuum (BICs) application in the refractive index (RI) sensing. We consider two types of one-dimensional rectangular photonic structure at subwavelength regime and study the Fano resonance shift for off-Γ BIC. The results obtained will make it possible to create photonic structures for biosensing, for which a high-Q resonance is observed at nonzero incidence angles.
