Abstract
The filter function of the metal–insulator–metal (MIM) waveguide with a gear-shaped nanocavity is investigated using the finite-difference time-domain method. Since the gear breaks the symmetric distribution of the resonance, Fano resonance occurs in the gear-shaped nanocavity. Fano resonance strongly depends on the structural parameters of the gear. Compared to the MIM waveguide with a disk-shaped nanocavity, the MIM waveguide with a gear-shaped nanocavity allows for a much more sensitive detection of small refractive index changes of the filled media inside the nanocavity, which reveals a potential sensor application of the MIM waveguide with a gear-shaped nanocavity.
