RESUMO
This manuscript aims to analyze the effect of tin selenide (SnSe) on the sensing application of SPR biosensors. Tin selenide is the 2-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide material. The proposed multilayer structure has a BK7 prism, a bimetallic layer of Au, tin selenide, and a graphene layer. Tin selenide is used to improve the performance parameters of the biosensor. The ε - SnSe nanosheet is placed in between two layers of gold (Au) in the Kretschmann configuration. The proposed configuration has a maximum sensitivity of 214 deg/RIU, 93.81% higher than the conventional sensor. The performance parameters like full width half maximum, detection accuracy, and quality factor have been analyzed. The ε - SnSe material is an air-stable 2-D. The proposed sensor is suitable for the analysis of chemical, medical, and biological analytes.
