Nonlinear regression of sensorgrams for affinity measurements2. Eigen-waves in optical systems -- 2.1. Complex refractive indices of noble metals -- 2.2. Boundary conditions and surface plasmons3. Surface plasmon resonance biosensors -- 3.1. Monochromatic light reflection and refraction on an interface -- 3.2. Monochromatic light reflection on a thin film between two media -- 3.3. Benchmarks of SPR biosensors4. SPR ellipsometry biosensors -- 4.1. Phase angle and amplitude angle of reflected light waves -- 4.2. The principle of a null ellipsometer -- 4.3. SPREP : a hybridization of SPR and ellipsometry -- 4.4. Using the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm to interpret SPREP spectra -- 4.5. A virtual SPREP biosensor5. Waveguide biosensors -- 5.1. Eigenvalue equations of a slab waveguide -- 5.2. The benchmark of a RM biosensor : IAsys -- 5.3. RMEP and RMEPA, two super biosensors -- 5.4. A porous silicon interferometric biosensor6. SPR biosensors DIY and applications -- 6.1. Modifying a spectrometer to make a simple SPR biosensor -- 6.2. Modifying an x-ray diffraction goniometer for an automatic SPR biosensor -- 6.3. A portable SPR biosensor.Commencing by defining a set of standards for benchmarking sensors to enable better comparison, this book then proceeds to provide a review of the physics and workings of several optical and super optical biosensors, and introduces two more super optical biosensors, including the most sensitive super optical biosensor 'RMEPA', an abbreviation of three optical technique names: resonant mirroring, ellipsometry and attenuated total reflection. Mathcad is used to analyse these virtual biosensors and these codes and available to readers for use in their own research. It will be a key reference for researchers in academia and industry, particularly those involved in developing next generation optical biosensors.
