Abstract

Chirped-pitch crossed surface relief gratings (CP-CSRGs) were fabricated on photoactive azobenzene thin films using a simple two-step procedure. The resulting gratings had a constant pitch in one direction and a varying (chirped) pitch in the orthogonal direction. They were coated with silver and tested for their ability to excite surface plasmon resonance (SPR). It was observed that incident light can be transmitted or blocked on different locations of the CP-CSRG device only as a function of the light’s wavelength. These SPR-based sensors were used to detect changes in the refractive index of aqueous sucrose solutions and a maximum sensitivity of 778.6 nm/RIU was obtained.
