Abstract

The paper is all about the analysis of Glycerol and different concentrations of Glucose using Photonic Crystal\n(PhC) based sensor. These are the methods that can be used in the medical, pharmaceutical, bio technological fields. Photonic\nCrystal based sensing is so rapid and precise that it is going to be the technology of the near future. While conducting the\ntests for glycerol and glucose, experimental tests are conducted to determine based on a lot of molecular equations and\niterations and the information about its concentration is done by mathematical calculations and plotting graphs. Most of the\ntime there is a great possibility of inaccuracy. These methods are a lot time consuming and it often leads to misleading\ninterpretation. This problem can be avoided by using Phc based sensor. This sensor is generally based on the RI of the sample\nand the result is obtained in a very few seconds. For analysis of samples we use the method of FDTD. The transmission range\nis obtained after simulation. From this spectrum, it is observed that there is a shift in output frequency and transmitted power.\nHence the proposed PhC design can act as a sensor. A PhC based optical sensor has been designed and simulated by\nconsidering rods in air configuration. The small changes in dielectric constant of the samples can be measured using this\nsensor. This simulation is done by MEEP and MPB work, RI of 10% and 20% Glucose and glycerol is used as a sample.
