“…In contrast, dielectric WGs typically feature larger mode volumes and weaker field confinement, resulting in comparatively low sensitivity to fluctuations in the surrounding medium [9,10]. In recent years, several photonic devices have been realized utilizing HPWG structures enhanced device performance [1,5,[11][12][13][14][15][16].…”

In this study, we conducted a comprehensive numerical analysis employing the finite element method (FEM) to explore the characteristics of a hybrid plasmonic waveguide (HPWG)-based ring resonator (RR) structure. Our investigation reveals that the device's sensitivity can be significantly augmented through strategic geometric modifications. The device exhibits sensitivities of approximately 176 nm/RIU and 238 nm/RIU when utilizing WG widths of 300 nm and 270 nm, respectively, in forming the ring structure. Through optimization efforts aimed at enhancing the overlap between the dielectric and plasmonic modes, the device's sensitivity reaches an optimized level of around 316 nm/RIU by reducing the ring width to 250 nm. Overall, our findings underscore the potential for leveraging geometric adjustments to enhance the sensitivity and functionality of DHPWG-based RRs, thereby advancing their utility in diverse sensing applications.
