Abstract
Instrumental performance and sensitivity of surface plasmon polariton or resonance (SPR) sensors are crucially affected by ambient temperature fluctuations. Apart from temperature-induced opto-mechanical displacements, resonance conditions and associated output quantities vary, due to thermo-physical properties of optical components, like prism, semi-transparent metal-film and aqueous analyte solution. The variation of instrumental sensitivity S as function of environmental temperature has been exploited experimentally in the temperature region 275K
