On the performance quantification of resonant refractive index sensors
Refractive index (RI) sensors based on optical resonance techniques are receiving a high degree of attention because of the need to develop simple, low-cost, high-throughput detection technologies for a number of applications. While the sensing mechanism of most of the reported RI sensors is similar, the construction is quite different from technique ...

Universal scaling of plasmonic refractive index sensors
We establish experimental and numerical evidence that the refractive index sensitivities of various subwavelength plasmonic sensors obey a simple universal scaling relation that the sensitivities linearly increase with λm/neff (where λm is the resonant wavelengths and neff is the effective refractive index of the environment) and exhibit a slope equal ...
