Abstract :
Summary form only given. It is essential to characterize the optical properties of multilayer organic and inorganic thin films for the purpose of optical biomolecule detection. However, the complete system would also require a prediction procedure for the intended sample of interest. Surface plasmon resonance is an optical phenomenon that can probe the vicinity of the interface with high sensitivity. This paper describes the theory and extends to the applications of the multilayer thin films. It provides a database of various materials used as thin films, which include metals, semiconductors, insulators, and compounds. A ringer solution is suggested as a calibration standard to normalize the spectra for optical parameters (n, k, d) best fitted by nonlinear multiple regression.
