Refractive index sensor based on Fano resonance in a ring with a rectangular cavity structure

This paper presents an innovative plasmonics-based refractive index sensor structure that consists of a circular ring containing a rectangular cavity (CRRC) and a metal–insulator–metal (MIM) waveguide with two rectangular stubs. The narrowband mode of the CRRC interacts with the broadband mode of th...
