Publication Open Access Labyrinth metasurface for biosensing applications: numerical study on the new paradigm of metageometries(MDPI, 2019) Jáuregui López, Irati; Rodríguez Ulibarri, Pablo; Kuznetsov, Sergei A.; Quemada Mayoral, Carlos; Beruete Díaz, Miguel; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de ComunicaciónThe use of metasurfaces operating in the terahertz regime as biosensor devices has attracted increased interest in recent years due to their enhanced sensitivity and more accurate detection capability. Typical designs are based on the replica of relatively simple unit cells, usually called metaatoms. In a previous paper, we proposed a new paradigm for ultrasensitive thin-film sensors based on complex unit cells, called generically metageometries or labyrinth metasurfaces. Here, we extend this concept towards biosensing, evaluating the performance of the labyrinth as a fungi detector. The sensing capabilities are numerically evaluated and a comparison with previous works in this field is performed, showing that metageometries improve the performance compared to metaatoms both in sensitivity and figure of merit, by a factor of more than four. In particular, we find that it is able to detect five fungi elements scattered on the unit cell, equivalent to a concentration of only 0.004/µm2.Publication Open Access Labyrinth absorber based on metageometries metasurface for fungi detection(IEEE, 2020) Jáuregui López, Irati; Rodríguez Ulibarri, Pablo; Kuznetsov, Sergei A.; Beruete Díaz, Miguel; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio IngeniaritzarenIn this paper a labyrinth metasurface based in the new paradigm of metageometries is designed to operate in the Terahertz (THz) band as a biosensor. First, a numerical study is carried out to study the performance of the metasurface as a refractometer when working in two different configurations: transmission and reflection. Then, its performance as a fungi detector is evaluated and a comparison with other devices is performed, showing that the sensitivity and Figure of Merit (FOM) can be enhanced by the use of these kind of devices, in comparison with the classical approach of metaatoms. Particularly, the designed structure is able to detect 5 fungi elements arbitrarily distributed on the unit cell, which is equivalent to a concentration of 0.004/μm 2 , improving the results available in the literature by a factor of more than 4.
