A photonic biosensor, a photonic biosensor array, and a method of detecting a bio-material using the same are provided. The photonic biosensor includes a light emitting diode configured to emit light, a photodiode (PD), an optical fiber configured to connect the light emitting diode with the PD, and a micro-fluidic channel disposed on the optical fiber. Bio-antibodies or aptamers are fixed to the surface of the optical fiber, and the micro-fluidic channel includes gold (Au) nanoparticles to which bio-antibodies or aptamers are fixed. The photonic biosensor may be configured using absorption of surface plasmons in Au nanoparticles with respect to light traveling through the surface of the optical fiber configured to connect the light emitting diode with the PD, thus simplifying the manufacture of the biosensor and reducing the manufacturing cost. |
