| الوصف: | An excessively tilted LPFG-assisted surface plasmon polaritons sensor (ExTLPFG assisted SPP sensor) with ultrahigh sensitivity is proposed and numerically investigated using the finite-element-method-based full-vector complex coupled mode theory. We show that the SPP mode is transited (or excited) gradually from both the p-polarized TM0,j and EHv,j (v ≥ 1) modes, and hence, the proposed SPP sensor can be tuned to achieve strong resonance of either the degenerate TM0,j and EH2,j modes or EH1,j mode to optimize the sensitivity for analyte refractive index sensing. The results confirm that a transition point corresponding to the phase matching curve of the SPP mode is obtained, which can be used to predict the optimized grating period. By this approach, ultrasensitive SPP refractometric sensor can be obtained and the sensitivity can be further improved through a simple method: reducing the fiber cladding combined with an optimized grating period. We demonstrate that a giant sensitivity as high as 10100 nm/RIU is achieved for the degenerate TM0,32 and EH2,32 modes (or 7400 nm/RIU for the EH1,32 mode). These appealing characteristics make the proposed Ex-TLPFG-assisted SPP sensor ideal for biochemical analyte sensing applications. |
