Optical sensing, optoelectronics, and photonic devices are the most significant emerging fields from the last four decades, and they continue to grow in terms of invention, innovation and research. The essential requirement for a biosensor is that bacterial detection should be exclusive, sensitive and provide a rapid response. Those sensors which are actively operating in business are very steeply- priced, and furthermore they need consumable sensor chips, which have to encompass a few essential specifications aiming for much smaller size, much smaller thickness, a powerful sensing vicinity and so on. Biosensors determine the presence and concentration of specific biological substances in biological analytes, and their key components are bioreceptors and transducers. Bioreceptors or ligands may be enzymes, proteins or antibodies; while transducers convert biochemical activity into electrical energy. Similarly they are sensing elements for gas-sensing of hazardous gases like methane, carbon dioxide, or rogen among others.
