Abstrakt: In the present research work, we have theoretically examined the biosensing capabilities of microcavity-based one-dimensional photonic crystal suitable for identifying the primary and secondary-stage cancerous and non-cancerous liver tissues. To carry out investigations we have used MATLAB computational tool in addition to the transfer matrix method. The propagation of an electromagnetic wave through the proposed biosensing structure loaded with the sample under investigation has been studied under both normal and oblique incidence cases corresponding to transverse electric waves only. The present work highlights the effect of change in cavity layer thickness, period number, and angle of incidence on the performance of the proposed design. This study helps us to explore optimum conditions under which the structure works as a sensitive biosensor. The idea of this work may be useful for designing of various microcavity based 1D photonic crystal-based biosensors capable of investigating various fluids of the human body for the prevention of the spreading of cancerous and other liver related diseases.
