Square array photonic crystal fiber-based surface plasmon resonance refractive index sensor

Abstract: Based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR), a novel refractive index (RI) sensor comprising a square photonic crystal fiber (PCF) is proposed to realize the detection of the annular analyte. Instead of hexagon structure, four large air-holes in a square array are introduced to enhance the sensitivity by allowing two polarization directions of the core mode to be more sensitive. The gold is used as the only plasmonic material. The design purpose is to reduce the difficulty in gold deposition and enhance the RI se… Show more

“…So these two parameters depend on the plasmonic material thickness. The loss curve for different plasmonic thickness at analyte RI=1.38 is shown in Fig.4.The decrease in the loss depth is due to the damping effect of the gold [10]. Therefore, less energy from fundamental core mode is transferred to the plasmonic mode when compared with gold thickness of the lower value.…”

“… 23 For example, Zhang et al 24 have designed a high-sensitivity refractive index sensor based on the D-shape PCF, which has a maximum wavelength sensitivity of 11,750 nm/RIU and resolution of 8.51×106. Liu et al 25 have proposed a square-array PCF-SPR sensor exhibiting remarkable sensitivity up to 7250 nm/RIU and resolution of 1.0638×105 RIU. Momota and Hasan 26 have designed a simple hollow-core circular lattice PCF-based surface SPR refractive index sensor that shows a maximum wavelength sensitivity of 4200 nm/RIU and resolution of 2.38×105 RIU.…”
