A MIM Waveguide Structure of a High-Performance Refractive Index and Temperature Sensor Based on Fano Resonance

A plasmonic refractive index nanosensor structure consisting of a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) waveguide with two symmetrical rectangle baffles coupled with a connected-concentric-double rings resonator (CCDRR) is presented. In this study, its transmission characteristics were investigated using the...

A MIM Waveguide Structure of a High-Performance Refractive Index and Temperature Sensor Based on Fano Resonance

In this study, its transmission characteristics were investigated using the finite element method (FEM). The consequences, studied via simulation, revealed that the transmission spectrum of the system presents a sharp asymmetric Fano profile due to the destructive interference between the wide-band mode of two rectangle baffles on the bus waveguide and the narrow-band mode of the CCDRR. The effects of the geometric parameters of the structure on the transmission characteristics were investigated comprehensively.
