    Area of Science:

    • Optics and Photonics
    • Spectroscopy
    • Materials Science

    Background:

    • Conventional absorption measurements can lack sensitivity for certain samples.
    • Surface-plasmon resonance (SPR) offers a pathway to enhance light-matter interactions.
    • Attenuated total internal reflection (ATR) is a common spectroscopic technique.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose and validate a method for enhancing absorption sensitivity using SPR.
    • To investigate the theoretical mechanism behind SPR-enhanced absorption.
    • To determine optimal parameters for the enhancement method.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilizing a modified Attenuated Total Internal Reflection (ATR) setup.
    • Depositing a thin metal film onto the substrate prism.
    • Theoretical analysis and numerical calculation of optimal metal film thickness.
    • Experimental validation and comparison with conventional ATR.

    Main Results:

    • Demonstrated significant enhancement in absorption measurement sensitivity.
    • Identified the optimal metal film thickness for maximum sensitivity.
    • Confirmed the mechanism of surface-field enhancement via SPR.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed SPR-enhanced ATR method significantly improves absorption sensitivity.
    • This technique offers a promising approach for developing highly sensitive sensors.
    • Further applications in various sensing domains are anticipated.
