Design of Surface Plasmon Resonance-Based D-Type Double Open-Loop Channels PCF for Temperature Sensing

Abstract

Here, we document a D-type double open-loop channel floor plasmon resonance (SPR) photonic crystal fiber (PCF) for temperature sensing. The grooves are designed on the polished surfaces of the pinnacle and backside of the PCF and covered with a gold (Au) film, and stomata are distributed around the PCF core in a progressive, periodic arrangement. Two air holes between the Au membrane and the PCF core are designed to shape a leakage window, which no longer solely averts the outward diffusion of Y-polarized (Y-POL) core mode energy, but also sets off its coupling with the Au movie from the leakage window. This SPR-PCF sensor uses the temperature-sensitive property of Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) to reap the motive of temperature sensing. Our lookup effects point out that these SPR-PCF sensors have a temperature sensitivity of up to 3757 pm/°C when the temperature varies from 5 °C to 45 °C. In addition, the maximum refractive index sensitivity (RIS) of the SPR-PCF sensor is as excessive as 4847 nm/RIU. These proposed SPR-PCF temperature sensors have an easy nanostructure and proper sensing performance, which now not solely improve the overall sensing performance of small-diameter fiber optic temperature sensors, but also have vast application prospects in geo-logical exploration, biological monitoring, and meteorological prediction due to their remarkable RIS and exclusive nanostructure.

Design of a Penta-Band Graphene-Based Terahertz Metamaterial Absorber with Fine Sensing Performance

“…If the frequency, wave vector, and propagation direction of the electromagnetic wave align with those of the SPW, the energy carried by photons is transferred to the free electrons of the SPW [ 33 ]. This phenomenon leads to surface plasmon resonance (SPR) [ 34 ]. Consequently, the device effectively captures the energy of the electromagnetic wave.…”

Incorporation of Defects in Finite Elements to Model Effective Mechanical Properties of Metamaterial Cells Printed by Selective Laser Melting

“…Though there is no universally accepted definition of metamaterial, metamaterials are considered artificial or engineered "materials" with properties that are rarely present in conventional materials [14][15][16][17]. There are applications of metamaterials for electronics, electromagnetism, sensor devices, optics or heat transmission [18][19][20][21][22][23]. Mechanical metamaterials are usually designed from the geometric repetition of a unit cell in the different directions of the space, creating more complex structures [24][25][26], such as honeycomb sandwiches and plates or other hierarchical structures [27][28][29][30].…”

Spectrally Selective Ultra‐Broadband Solar Absorber Based on Pyramidal Structure

“…The above absorbers can expand the absorption bandwidth to a certain extent, but the absorption bandwidth is still not wide enough and the structure is complicated, which is not favorable for absorbing and using solar energy. Therefore, it is important to study a high absorption, [ 28–30 ] ultra‐broadband [ 31–33 ] absorber with simple structure.…”
