We propose a concept for highly integrated magnetoplasmonic biosensors using nanostructured magnetooptical hyperbolic metamaterials. By utilizing enhanced amplitudes of ultranarrow peaks and bulk plasmon polariton modes in HMMs, we achieve improved figure of merit and resolution detection for low-molecular-weight analytes.
We demonstrate numerically a concept for highly integrated magnetoplasmonic biosensors made with nanostruc-tured magnetooptical (MO) hyperbolic metamaterials (HMMs). The concept is based on the use of enhanced amplitudes of ultranarrow peaks of the transverse magnetooptical Kerr effect (TMOKE). In contrast to conventional magnetoplasmonic trans-ducers that employ wide surface plasmon resonances, we use bulk plasmon polariton modes in HMMs. In sensing through changes in the refractive index of water, a figure of merit on the order of 8 x 10(2) was observed, to be compared with 590 for non-MO HMMs. This allows for improved resolution detection of low-molecular-weight analytes at concentrations on the order of picomolar.
