Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We propose a biosensor based on the diffraction of Bloch surface waves (BSWs) in periodic dielectric stacks. Significant enhancement of diffraction efficiency by a biomolecule grating placed on the multilayer is predicted when a BSW is excited through a prism in the Kretschmann configuration. Numerical calculations for BSW in a Si∕SiO2 dielectric stack show an increase of diffraction intensity up to three orders of magnitude with respect to the case of surface plasmon wave enhancement. The mechanism that leads to large field confinement and the absence of absorption losses in the dielectric system make this solution flexible and suitable to different grating periods.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
