title: Optimization of bulk and surface biosensing in plane stratified configurations.
abstract: Various biochemical and tissue sensors utilize layered configurations to accurately measure the physical parameters (e.g. refractive index) of the suspension or tissue under investigation. The most sensitive techniques, like these based on well-known Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) phenomenon, are usually limited to surface sensing at the infrared and light wavelength bands. We present a new type of broadband absorption biosensing method, which utilizes Lossy Resonance Modes (LRM) in thin lossy film configurations and can be facilitated in a highly scalable and sensitive manner for both bulk and surface sensing in various frequency bands, from radio to light frequencies.
