Abstract
Electromagnetic sensors have received huge attention in the last few years, due to the rising demand of devices able to improve quality, performance and safety in different industrial sectors: both sensing and medical industries are outstanding examples. Despite reliable diagnostic technologies have been developed, some drawbacks are still present: bandwidth, large dimensions and limited response control. Metasurfaces, bi-dimensional engineered materials, represent an optimal solution to overcome such issues enhancing existing systems for an accurate diagnosis. Therefore, in this paper, metasurface-based sensors are proposed and realized by using new additive manufacturing processes. The structures are finally experimentally tested and verified in different medical diagnostic applications, namely: cancer stage recognition, glucose/sugar levels measurements and blood oxygen saturation detection. The high performances shown by such meta-sensors, in terms of selectivity and sensibility, pave a new way to realize advanced platforms for non-invasive, high quality and faster patient diagnosis.
