Early detection of acute dehydration using one dimensional photonic device

The present work has been focused on precise measurement technique of osmolality, total dissolved solids and specific gravity of human urine using diamond based one-dimensional photonic crystal structure. The photonic bandgap of the proposed structure has been computed using finite difference time domain method. Result showed that the linear relationship between key parameters with respect to output energy. During measurement of various samples using proposed biosensor, the sensitivity was found to be 0.09 which was comparably larger than the earlier report.
