摘要

We present NanoSensorLab, an open-access MATLAB-based simulation toolbox grounded in Mie scattering theory for the advanced modeling and optimization of plasmonic nanoparticle-based sensors. The toolbox comprises two integrated modules: Nanoscattering, which computes scattering (Qsca), absorption (Qabs), and extinction (Qext) efficiencies alongside key optical metrics such as peak wavelength, line width, and quality factor (QF); and Nanosensor, which evaluates sensor performance parameters including sensitivity (S) and figure-of-merit (FOM). NanoSensorLab supports multilayered spherical geometries, nanoshells, nanomatryoshkas, and gain-assisted configurations, and incorporates a material library that includes noble metals, transition metal nitrides, and graphene with user-defined optical properties. The toolbox enables rapid design of high-performance LSPR-based sensors and facilitates parametric studies via an intuitive graphical interface. Simulations demonstrate that graphene-integrated TiN-based nanomatryoshkas can achieve sensitivities up to 925.28 nm/RIU, representing a 125.52% enhancement over conventional designs. Benchmarking against COMSOL Multiphysics validates the numerical accuracy of the implementation. NanoSensorLab offers a streamlined, customizable platform for designing plasmonic biosensors targeting biomedical diagnostics such as glucose monitoring and cancer cell detection.
