Detailed Description
The embodiment of the refractive index sensor based on the flat symmetric structure comprises a substrate made of glass, wherein a metal nano structure with a dimer structure is arranged on the substrate, and is embedded in the substrate and made of metal silver, as shown in fig. 1-3. The metal nano structure comprises two metal nano wire units which are arranged at intervals along the transverse direction and are symmetrically arranged along the longitudinal direction, and the gap between the two metal nano wire units on the substrate is 20 nm. Each metal nanowire unit comprises two transverse metal nanowires which are arranged at intervals along the longitudinal direction, are equal in length and are aligned at the ends, and a vertical metal nanowire connected between the two transverse metal nanowires, and an I-shaped structure is formed between the vertical metal nanowire and the two transverse metal nanowires of each metal nanowire unit. And a middle metal nanowire which is close to and extends towards the other metal nanowire unit is transversely arranged on the vertical metal nanowire of each metal nanowire unit.
The widths of all the metal nanowires are equal and are all 30 nm. The thickness of each metal nanowire is 10nm, namely the thickness of the metal nanostructure is 10 nm. The length of each transverse metal nanowire is 176 nm. The lengths of all the middle metal nanowires are all 60 nm. The length of each longitudinal metal nanowire is 90 nm. And each end part of the longitudinal metal nanowire is positioned at the central line position of the corresponding transverse metal nanowire, and the middle metal nanowire is positioned at the middle position of the corresponding longitudinal metal nanowire.
The sensing performance of the sensor is simulated by using an FDTD method, a structural model is firstly constructed in software CST (MicroWavestudio), then boundary conditions are set, open (add space) is adopted as the boundary conditions, the influence can be eliminated by constructing a perfect matching layer aiming at the boundary reflection condition, and finally the whole structure is simulated. The simulation is a common simulation method in the art, and the detailed process is not described in detail here. The calculated extinction spectrum plot for the refractive index sensor, as shown in fig. 4, where the dashed line represents the scattering curve and the solid line represents the absorption line, can be calculated to yield a quality factor of about 26.6. As can be seen from FIG. 4, the peak of the scattered light line decreases at a wavelength of about 1400nm and the absorbed light line exhibits an intensity of about 160000nm2Peak of (2). This indicates that at a wavelength of about 1400nm, the structure produces a scattering dark effect like EIT (electromagnetically induced transparency) due to coupling between the two modesAt this interval, scattering suddenly disappears, while absorption increases. FIG. 5 is a graph of the refractive index of the solution as a function of the position of the scattering dark state, and it can be easily seen from the graph that the position of the scattering dark state shifts with the change of the refractive index of the solution, and this characteristic enables us to obtain the refractive index of the solution by detecting the position of the scattering dark state in the absorption line. FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a calculated value of the quality factor Q of the refractive index sensor and a straight line fitting the calculated value. FIG. 7 is a graph showing the wavelength at which the scattering dark state occurs and its linear fit, and it can be seen that it exhibits good linear characteristics and the sensor sensitivity is as high as 699nm/RIU, which shows that when the refractive index is slightly changed, the position at which the scattering dark state occurs is significantly changed. FIG. 8 shows a difference X0The scattering spectrum under the length can be obtained according to X0The position where the scattering dark state appears is shifted toward the long wavelength direction. The characterization is by varying X0Can change the position where the scattering dark state appears, so that it is convenient for practical measurement. FIG. 9 is a scattering spectrum diagram under different X lengths, which can show that the position where the scattering dark state appears does not change with the increase of X, and proves that the change of X length is irrelevant to the position where the scattering dark state appears, and only influences the intensity of the scattering spectrum.
The metal nano structure is a dimer structure, and the structure is simple, the process difficulty is low, the preparation is easy, and the sensing performance is excellent. The refractive index sensor can obtain the refractive index of the solution by detecting the position where the scattering dark state appears. And the structure is capable of producing different spectral responses by varying the structural parameters of the nanostructure.
The preparation process of the refractive index sensor comprises the following steps:
And 4, electron beam evaporation: and evaporating metal into the nanowire holes of the flat-plate symmetrical nanostructure by using an electron beam evaporation system.
And step 5, developing: and carrying out corrosion development on the exposed photoresist by using a developing solution.
When the structure is used, the refractive index sensor of the structure is immersed in a solution to be measured, a beam of vertically incident test light is projected above the structure, a narrow descending interval called as a scattering dark state appears at the peak of a scattering spectral line, and along with the change of the solution refractive index (namely the solution concentration), the position where the scattering dark state appears is linearly changed along with the wavelength, namely the solution refractive index (namely the solution concentration) can be expressed by the wavelength value of the position where the scattering dark state appears, so that the sensitivity is high. The refractive index sensor with the structure is simple in structure and easy to process.
In other embodiments of the present invention, the length of each lateral metal nanowire may also be 90 nm; the length of each transverse metal nanowire can also be 260 nm; the length of each intermediate metal nanowire may be 20 nm; each intermediate metal nanowire may have a length of 140 nm.
