Compact Mid-Infrared Gas Sensing Enabled by an All-Metamaterial Design

Abstract: The miniaturization of mid-infrared optical gas sensors has great potential to make the “fingerprint region” between 2 and 10 μm accessible to a variety of cost-sensitive applications ranging from medical technology to atmospheric sensing. Here we demonstrate a gas sensor concept that achieves a 30-fold reduction in absorption volume compared to conventional gas sensors by using plasmonic metamaterials as on-chip optical filters. Integrating metamaterials into both the emitter and the detector cascades their i… Show more

“…Within the context, it is worth mentioning that the red-shifts in absorption peak are linearly scaled for a larger GST layer thickness. Since most of the environmental gas sensors operate in the mid-IR regime, this property remains desirable for designing tunable optical gas sensors 51 .…”

“…Similarly, electrochemical sensors have the advantages of accuracy, reliability, rapidity and high sensitivity (Wang et al 2020a , b ). However, the optical sensors are based on the reactions between the measured gas and the sensitive layer, which result in changes of absorbance, fluorescence and color (Lochbaum et al 2020 ).…”

“…The inverse design protocol is based on stochastic gradient descent (SGD) that allows for the individual layer thicknesses of the DBR, as well as the carrier density (thus the dielectric function) of CdO to be optimized efficiently (minutes on a consumer-grade desktop) with deterministic design capabilities. Experimentally, we realize several such inversely designed TPP-WS-EMs targeting narrow-band thermal emission at singleor dual-frequencies for various applications, including filterless nondispersive infrared sensing (NDIR 3,18,19 ) and high-Q emitters in the long-and mid-wave infrared (LWIR, MWIR), with all structures exhibiting excellent agreement between experiments and simulations. Furthermore, we illustrate precise spectral control of CdO-based TPP-WS-EMs by matching frequencies, lineshapes and amplitudes of arbitrarily shaped spectra across the entire spectral range from the LWIR to telecommunication bands (1550 nm), including the ability to individually define the frequency and Q-factors (27 -10,127).…”
