The sensitivity of prism-coupled SPR sensor is a little higher than that of grating-based SPR sensor. However, GCSPR has advantages of small size, cheap, suitable for portable design.

How does grating-coupled SPR occur

The fabrication process of gratingI.

1. Start with fabrication by holographically with an blue laser (488 nm) on GaAs substrate with doping level from 5x1016 to 5x1018 cm-3

2. The microstructure was revealed by AFM, which reconstructs the grating profile and determines groove depth and grating period.

3. Thermally evaporated metal (Au) films were deposited at room temperature.

II.

1. Exposing Shipley S1405-17 photoresist to two expanded collimated interfering beams of 457.9 nm radiation from an argon ion laser.

2. Hardened by exposure to ultra-violet radiation

3. Etched by an energetic atom beam to transfer the spatial profile in the photoresist through into the silica substrates.

Schottky Junction 由金屬和 N型半導體接合 接觸面上形成 Schottky ba

rrier 加入順向偏壓時， N型區的自由電子獲得足夠能量，而移到較大的軌道中移動，因此自由電子也能跨越接面而進入金屬區，造成大量順向電流。

Band Diagram of a Metal-Semiconductor Junction

Each material has a characteristic energy which is needed to remove an electron from its surface to infinity. This is called the work function of the material. When a high work function metal comes in contact with a semiconductor with a lower work function, electrons flow from the semiconductor to the metal. This results in a band configuration shown in Figure.
