  4. Abstract:
  5. As developed countries’ ability to control infectious diseases increases, it has become clear that genetic diseases are a major cause of disability, death, and human tragedy. Coronavirus has recently spread throughout the world, and the capacity to detect low concentrations and virus changes can help to prevent the sickness from spreading further. In this paper, a surface plasmon resonance sensor based on nanostructured thin films and graphene as a 2D material has been designed with high sensitivity and accuracy to identify DNA-based infectious diseases such as SARS-CoV-2. The transfer matrix method assesses the effects of different structural factors, including nanolayer thickness on the sensor’s performance. The results demonstrated that the sensor with the Kretschmann configuration has ultra-high sensitivity (192.19 deg/RIU) and a high figure of merit (634.68 RIU−1). © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature
