Analysis and Design of Refractive Index Biosensors Based on Single Silicon Nanobeam Cavity

Single silicon nanobeam photonic crystal cavity based sensors are systematically analyzed and designed. By using perturbation theory and numerical simulations, both dielectric-mode and air-mode cavities are extensively investigated in terms of sensitivity (S), figure of merit (FOM), detection limit...
