Waveguide Resonance

The TM and TE guided modes in the coupled plasmon-waveguide resonance configuration are investigated in the spectral domain. Here we use the modes dispersion to study their capability for sensing in the near infrared region. It is shown that the spectral widths of the guided modes are, at least, one order of magnitude smaller than the conventional surface plasmon resonance counterpart. The enhanced sensitivity and figure of merit of the guided modes reveal their potential for sensing in the spectral interrogation method where the traditional configurations are inherently limited. Moreover, the high resolution associated with the narrow resonances and the polarization dependence make these modes very promising for anisotropic biosensing in the spectral interrogation approach. The extremely high figure of merit, large penetration depth, and propagation distance in the near infrared region open the possibility of combining the plasmon-waveguide configuration with absorption spectroscopy techniques for molecular recognition.

Resonance Cavity

Herein, a compact refractive index nanosensor comprising a metal- insulator- metal (MIM) waveguide with symmetric two triangle stubs coupled with a circular split-ring resonance cavity (CSRRC) is theoretically presented. An analysis of the propagation characteristics of the designed structure is discussed employing the finite element method (FEM). The calculation results revealed that a Fano resonance outline emerged, which results from an interaction between the continuous broadband state of the waveguide with two symmetric triangle stubs and the discrete narrowband state of the CSRRC. The influence of geometric parameters on sensing properties was studied in detail. The maximum sensitivity reached 1500 nm/RIU with a high figure of merit of 65.2. The presented structure has great applications for on-chip plasmonic nanosensors.

A plasmonic refractive index (RI) sensor based on metal-insulator-metal (MIM) waveguide coupled with concentric double rings resonator (CDRR) is proposed and investigated numerically. Utilizing the novel supermodes of the CDRR, the FWHM of the resonant wavelength can be modulated, and a sensitivity of 1060 nm/RIU with high figure of merit (FOM) 203.8 is realized in the near-infrared region. The unordinary modes as well as the influence of structure parameters on the sensing performance are also discussed. Such plasmonic sensor with simple framework and high optical resolution could be applied to on-chip sensing systems and integrated optical circuits. Besides, the special cases of bio- sensing and triple rings are also discussed.
