Double Fano sensing mechanism of waveguide coupled surface plasma

Abstract

Based on the optical properties of waveguide-coupled surface plasmon resonance, a sensor of surface plasmon coupled waveguide resonance with double discrete states generated by the upper and lower waveguide structures combined with prisms and Au films, respectively, is proposed. In this paper, the sensing structure is studied numerically and analytically, and the transmission characteristics of surface equipartition excitations are analyzed and elaborated in-depth in combination with the reflection angle spectrum, as well as the generation and evolution mechanism of dual Fano resonance at different incidence angles at fixed wavelengths. The structural model of Fano resonance sensing based on angle modulation is established, and the sensing characteristics are analyzed to produce electromagnetic field enhancement at low-angle Fano. The mathematical model between structural parameters and spectral performance is established using back propagation (BP) neural network, and the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is used to find the input structural parameters corresponding to the optimal performance, The results show that the quality factor of resonance (FOM) and sensitivity is significantly improved; When it is used in the field of biosensing, the response curves of Fano with different angles of high and low to concentration are quite different, thus realizing high precision detection of different concentrations of solutions and reflecting excellent sensing performance.

Active control of Fano resonance in side-coupled resonator-cavity systems

“…For instance, metallic nanostructures combining a bright superradiant dipole and a dark subradiant quadrupole have showcased Fano-type resonance and its EIT analogue [25][26][27]. Beyond this, characteristic features of Fano resonance have been observed in various structures ranging from core-shell lattices, nanoparticle clusters, split-ring configurations, side-coupled waveguide-cavities, to whispering-gallery micro-resonators, spanning radio to optical frequencies [28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37] . Fano resonance has proven to be of paramount significance for the development of miniaturized and high-performance photonic devices, including sensors, lasers, switches, modulators, diodes, and components for slowing light [38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53].…”
