Refractive index sensing with optical bound states in the continuum

open access: yesOptics Express, 2020
We consider refractive index sensing with optical bounds states in the continuum (BICs) in dielectric gratings. Applying a perturbative approach we derived the differential sensitivity and the figure of merit of a sensor operating in the spectral vicinity of a BIC. Optimisation design approach for engineering an effective sensor is proposed.

Refractive-Index Sensing with Ultrathin Plasmonic Nanotubes [PDF]

open access: yesPlasmonics, 2012
We study the refractive-index sensing properties of plasmonic nanotubes with a dielectric core and ultra-thin metal shell. The few-nm thin metal shell is described by both the usual Drude model and the nonlocal hydrodynamic model to investigate the effects of nonlocality.

Refractive index sensor for sensing high refractive index bioliquids at the THz frequency

Journal of the Optical Society of America B, 2021
In this paper, a highly sensitive and low loss refractive index (RI) biosensor for high RI bio-analytes detection, such as for cholesterol, nicotine, and bacillus bacteria, is proposed. A novel, to the best of our knowledge, decagonal structure with porous core photonic crystal fiber (PC-PCF) is introduced.

Refractive index sensing and switching of leaky states in a metasurface

Optics Letters, 2021
We theoretically propose leaky states in an electro-optic (EO)-based all-dielectric metasurface. The EO substrate tunes leaky modes to the desired wave band with changes in applied voltage ( V a p p ).

Twisted Optical Microfibers for Refractive Index Sensing

IEEE Photonics Technology Letters, 2011
A simple, compact, and robust refractive index sensor is developed, by twisting a pair of silica microfibers to form a coupling device. The transmission spectrum of the device is highly sensitive to the surrounding refractive index and the highest sensitivity obtained is -2377 nm/refractive index unit (RIU), at the refractive index value of - 1.3680 ...

Hybrid Metal-Dielectric Metasurfaces for Refractive Index Sensing

Nano Letters, 2020
Hybrid metal-dielectric nanostructures have recently gained prominence because they combine strong field enhancement of plasmonic metals and the several low-loss radiation channels of dielectric resonators, which are qualities pertaining to the best of both worlds.

Sensing the refractive index gradient of the atmosphere

SPIE Proceedings, 2006
The refractive index gradient, averaged over short horizontal paths, in the atmosphere was experimentally investigated by using a method we developed, based on the use of thin parallel laser beams. Horizontal and vertical components of the gradient were shown to be directly related to the corresponding lateral displacements of the beams at the end of ...

Simultaneous Refractive Index and Temperature Sensing With Precise Sensing Location

IEEE Photonics Technology Letters, 2016
An ultracompact optical fiber inline Mach-Zehnder interferometer for simultaneous refractive index and temperature sensing is demonstrated. The device is featured with precise sensing location and fabricated by femtosecond laser micromachining together with fusion splicing technique and followed by a slightly tapering process. There are two dips in the
