The sensing properties of thin copper (Cu) films near the surface plasmon resonance (SPR), were re-evaluated for the metal-air and metal-water interfaces and compared with gold (Au) films. For this, we used three different SPR sensing designs, i.e., a prism-based set-up, an optical fiber-based system, and a grating coupler-based solution. Optimum …
A concentration of NaBH 4 1 m proved to be the best value in terms of resulting electrical performance, with a conductivity of 5.14*10 7 S m −1, equivalent to …
As it would be expected, the increase of the gold pellets area on the Zn target led to a linear increase of Au concentration (at.%) (Fig. 1 a), with some noticeable morphological changes (Fig. 1 b) in the thin films.Considering the films prepared with the lowest amount of gold pellets on the Zn target (area of ~32 mm 2), the atomic …
