Abstract:This study presents an investigation on the performance of the sensitivity of a dual spidershaped surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-based photonic crystal fibre (PCF) refractive index sensor having unique design specifications. To evaluate the fibre guiding properties, Finite Element Method is used for utilising the monetarily accessible COMSOL Multiphysics version 5.3a. A gold layer has been used as the plasmonic material surrounding the fibre to ensure chemical stability, and a single fine coating of TiO 2 sup… Show more
“…In relation to this concept, the term ‘Figure of Merit’ (FOM) is used. FOM is also a critical performance parameter for calculating a sensor's detection limit, and may be expressed using the following equation [ 46 ]: …”
