Abstract
Tobacco smoking and alcohol consumption has many adverse effects on human health and leads to many chronic
diseases. The present study aims to compare the effect of smoking and alcohol consumption on the hemoglobin
concentration of the blood of male and female smokers and non-smokers. It is proved from the study that the effect of
smoking and alcohol consumption is more pronounced in the case of female smokers as compared to male smokers. A
race track-shaped photonic crystal ring resonator is designed using a finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulation
platform to conduct the study and a very high sensitivity of 950 nm/refractive index unit is obtained from the analysis.
