In this paper a graphene-MoS 2 hybrid structure based surface plasmon resonance biosensor is presented. The performance parameters of the proposed sensor are defined in terms of sensitivity, detection accuracy and quality factor. By the addition of hybrid graphene-MoS 2 layer the sensitivity is enhanced but the quality factor and detection accuracy is decreased. Hence to increase the quality factor and detection accuracy a silicon layer is included between metal and MoS 2 layer. It is observed that the full width at half maximum of reflectance curve is minimized up to great extent with little decrement in the sensitivity due to the inclusion of silicon layer. Furthermore in this paper, the effect of increasing the number of layers of graphene and MoS 2 is also analyzed.

Abstract-A theoretical modal dispersion study of a new unconventional Bragg waveguide having hypocycloidal core cross-section and surrounded by Bragg cladding layers is presented using a very simple boundary matching technique [1]. An attempt has been made to determine how the modal characteristics of a standard Bragg fiber change as its circular shape is changed to the hypocycloidal shape. It is seen that in the case of a hypocycloidal Bragg waveguide single mode guidance is possible when V ≤ 10.0 where V is the normalized frequency parameter. 192Singh, Prajapati, and Saini
