N2 - This article explores the feasibility of utilizing an interdigitated capacitor (IDC) based RF sensor for studying nanoparticle properties. The parameters include their size, shape, thickness, and relative arrangement in aqueous media. The analysis is carried out using the CAD tool high frequency structure simulator (HFSS). We study the variation in properties of spherical, cubical, disc-shaped, and polyhedral gold nanoparticles. The change in the resonance frequency, resonance amplitude, and − 3 dB bandwidth is analyzed for each case. The findings show that the change in the IDC-based RF sensor’s resonance characteristics can be used to track the variations in morphology and arrangements of gold nanoparticles.
