Title: Refractive Index Sensor Based on the Fano Resonance in Metal-Insulator-Metal Waveguides Coupled with a Whistle-Shaped Cavity. Author: Li B, Sun H, Zhang H, Li Y, Zang J, Cao X, Zhu X, Zhao X, Zhang Z. Journal: Micromachines (Basel); 2022 Sep 25; 13(10):. PubMed ID: 36295945. Abstract: A plasmonic refractive index sensor based on surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) that consist of metal-insulator-metal (MIM) waveguides and a whistle-shaped cavity is proposed. The transmission properties were simulated numerically by using the finite element method. The Fano resonance phenomenon can be observed in their transmission spectra, which is due to the coupling of SPPs between the transmission along the clockwise and anticlockwise directions. The refractive index-sensing properties based on the Fano resonance were investigated by changing the refractive index of the insulator of the MIM waveguide. Modulation of the structural parameters on the Fano resonance and the optics transmission properties of the coupled structure of two MIM waveguides with a whistle-shaped cavity were designed and evaluated. The results of this study will help in the design of new photonic devices and micro-sensors with high sensitivity, and can serve as a guide for future application of this structure.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
