Abstract
We present a bimetallic coated, low-loss spiral lattice PCF sensor combined with SPR technology that achieves a high sensitivity. The sensing performance and properties of our recommended sensor are realized numerically by the Finite Element Method. Gold is utilized as the plasmonic layer and titanium Oxide (TiO2), which is sandwiched between the silica glass fiber and the gold coating, forming the bimetallic surface. As TiO2 has a high refractive index, they create a strong surface plasmon wave in the plasmonic region that attracts the evanescent field originating from the core region and increases the coupling effect plasmonic and core mode. Hence, the bimetallic coating is performed to achieve better sensing performance and strengthen the SPR process for the presented sensor. The presented sensor’s nominal tolerance is 12,000 nm/RIU for x-polarization to 11,000 MHz for y-polarization. The presented sensor is intended to be used in several applications and sensing fields due to its high sensitivity.
