Fano resonance in dual-disk ring plasmonic nanostructures

Abstract: A dual-disk ring (DDR) structure with broken symmetry and weakly dissipating material, silver, is proposed to achieve Fano resonance in visible wavelength range. Symmetry breaking of a metallic ring is realized by placing two disks inside the ring. The excitation of the Fano resonance is interpreted in terms of coupling of the ring and the dual-disk plasmonic modes. The potential of using an array of such DDR nano structures as a biochemical sensor is evaluated with the figure of merit (FOM). Based on our desi… Show more

“…The quadrupole resonance exhibits extremely high sensitivity to the frequency of the incident light, where small variations can change forward scattering to backward scattering [12][13][14]. This offers potential applications in the development of highly sensitive biochemical sensors [15].…”

“…The plasmon modes are super radiant (bright mode) or subradiant (dark mode), depending on the coupling strength between the incident light and plasmon mode [2]. Fano resonance comes from the destructive interference of bright and dark plasmon modes [3][4][5], which is supported by different segments of the structure [6,7] or by the whole structure [8][9][10][11][12]. For the Fano resonances of plasmonic nanostructures, figure of merit (FOM) and contrast ratio (CR) are the two most important factors, which determine the overall performance in sensing applications [12].…”

“…Numerical simulation, which efficiently combines theoretical and experimental study, plays a very important role in the study of plasmonics. For metal nanostructures supporting SPR, the simulation study begins with single sphere, ellipsoid, ring, and disk and then directed to the combination of them [5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. Some convenient and flexible ways to manipulate the surface plasmon resonance such as coupling and symmetry breaking of nanoparticles are reported, and expected absorption peaks are obtained in certain range [12][13][14].…”
