The Optimization of Metal Nitride Coupled Plasmon Waveguide Resonance Sensors Using a Genetic Algorithm for Sensing the Thickness and Refractive Index of Diamond-like Carbon Thin Films

We theoretically designed the Kretschmann configuration coupled plasmon-waveguide resonance (CPWR) sensors, composed of thin films of metal nitrides. The thicknesses of the layers of the CPWR sensors were optimized using a genetic algorithm. The optimized CPWR sensors were applied to simultaneously...
