Sensors, communications devices and imaging equipment that use a prism and a special form of light – a surface plasmon-polariton – may incorporate multiple channels of redundant applications if manufacturers use sculptured thin films. Surface plasmon resonance devices currently have a wide range of applications. They are commercially used as sensors for humidity, temperature, chemical concentrations and chemical composition. SPR devices can be used in a form of surface microscopy, as wave guides and tunable filters. Creating two or more channels in each device would multiply SPR utility in all areas of application.
