Abstract
As one of the most vital proteins in blood, hemoglobin plays an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of diverse diseases, such as anemia and leukemia. In this paper, we leverage a momentum-mismatch-driven quasi-bound state in the continuum (quasi-BIC) in a resonant grating waveguide structure to achieve ultra-sensitive hemoglobin sensing. Empowered by the extraordinary resonant feature of the momentum-mismatch-driven quasi-BIC, the optimized resolution for hemoglobin sensing reaches the order of 10−3 g/L. Besides, the maximum Q factor and figure of merit reach the order of 103 and 10−1 L/g, respectively. Our work provides a practicable route, well within current experimental conditions, to achieving ultra-sensitive hemoglobin sensing. These results would possess applications in the diagnosis and treatment of hemoglobin-related diseases.
