β2-microglobulin: a biomarker for bipolar disorder and schizophrenia?

In this paper, a Kretschmann based surface plasmon resonance sensor using silver (Ag) and indium tin oxide (ITO) on chromium (Cr)-coated BK7 substrate has been analyzed for refractive index sensor. By numerical simulations, the thickness of the ITO layer along with Ag thin film have been optimized to achieve the best performance of the sensor in terms of sensitivity and Figure of Merit (FOM). The best sensor performance was achieved by Cr(0.5...
