Abstract
Combined with the light absorption from molecular vibration, photonic crystal (PhC) cavity structures have gradually shown great potential in gas detection, particularly for toxic gases. We proposed a PhC cavity with a high-quality factor of 1.24 × 106 and a small mode volume of 2.3 × 10−4 (λ/n)3, which was used for carbon monoxide detection. To reduce the interference of other gases, we set the resonance frequency in the terahertz band. The numerical analysis shows that the structure has good selectivity and high sensitivity, and the linear fitting of the results provides the possibility to realize the application, which has great competitiveness in the same type of sensor structure. Additionally, we also proved that the interference of H2O and CO2 on the CO sensing can be ignored, and it supports the detection of CO without pre-drying.
