In this presentation, aspects of plasmonic detection using prism and waveguide coupling will be addressed. The application of the Kretschmann configuration using a semi-cylindrical prism for detection of ethanol purity and the impact on the thickness of the adhesion layer (Titanium) and gold layer will be shown. Using the waveguide platform an introduction to the Hybrid Plasmonic Waveguide (HPWG) will be presented as well as a particular design using SiN slab guide with SiO2 cover. Guide thickness, low-index cladding thickness, metal, and the impact of their length on resonance quality are discussed.
