Abstract
In this paper, we present a two-dimensional surface plasmon resonance structure for refractive index sensing of liquid analytes. The polymer structure was designed with a period of 500 nm and prepared in a novel IP-Dip polymer by direct laser writing lithography based on a mechanism of two-photon absorption. The sample with a set of prepared IP-Dip structures was coated by 40 nm thin gold layer. The sample was encapsulated into a prototyped chip with inlet and outlet. The sensing properties were investigated by angular measurement using the prepared solutions of isopropyl alcohol in deionized water of different concentrations. Sensitivity of 478-617 nm per refractive index unit was achieved in angular arrangement at external angle of incidence of 20°.
