A Novel Plasmonic Sensor Based on Metal–Insulator–Metal Waveguide With Side-Coupled Hexagonal Cavity

We propose a novel and compact plasmonic sensing structure based on a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) waveguide with a side-coupled hexagonal cavity. The sensing structure has been numerically and theoretically investigated using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method and temporal coupled-mode...
