Significantly enhanced coupling effect and gap plasmon resonance in a MIM-cavity based sensing structure

Abstract Herein, we design a high sensitivity with a multi-mode plasmonic sensor based on the square ring-shaped resonators containing silver nanorods together with a metal–insulator-metal bus waveguide. The finite element method can analyze the structure's transmittance properties and electrom...
