Investigation of wide-range refractive index sensor based on asymmetric metal-cladding dielectric waveguide structure

A refractive index (RI) sensor based on an asymmetric metal-cladding dielectric waveguide structure, in which an analyte is used as the guiding layer, is proposed in this report. The angular scanning attenuated total reflection spectra of the sensor and optical field distributions under waveguide mo...
