Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensing is one of the most widely used methods to implement biosensing due to its sensitivity and capacity for label-free detection. Whilst most commercial SPR sensors operate in the angular regime, it has recently been shown that an increase in sensitivity and a grea...
