Simulated Study of High-Sensitivity Gas Sensor with a Metal-PhC Nanocavity via Tamm Plasmon Polaritons

An optical configuration was designed and simulated with a metal-photonic crystal (PhC) nanocavity, which had high sensitivity on gas detection. The simulated results shows that this configuration can generate a strong photonic localization through exciting Tamm plasmon polaritons. The strong photon...
