Abstract
In this paper, we propose a high-performance refractive-index sensor at a near-infrared band based on a hybrid Tamm structure. The optical properties of this graphene-based hybrid Tamm plasmonic structure are analyzed and investigated by using the transfer matrix method (TMM). Due to the excitation of the guide mode resonance (GMR) and Tamm plasmon polariton (TPP) resonance, the structure can realize multi-channel perfect absorption. This structure can be utilized as a refractive index sensor because the position of the absorption peak is sensitive to the refractive index of the ambient layer. Therefore, we obtain the sensitivity to 950 nm per refractive index unit (nm/RIU) and figure of merit (FoM) of 161 RIU-1 after studying the performance under different structural parameters. We believe that the proposed configuration is expected to be used to manufacture high-performance biosensors or gas sensor devices and other related applications in the near-infrared band.
