Abstract
The weak magneto-optical (MO) signal of traditional MO materials is indeed an important issue for their further practical applications. Although many strategies have been proposed to improve the MO effect, hybridization with noble metal nanostructures is a promising route in recent years due to the high localized-surface plasmon resonances (LSPR) effect. A new magneto-optical surface plasmon resonance (MOSPR) structure hybrid with Au bowtie arrays is proposed to increase the measuring range of the polar magneto-optical Kerr effect (PMOKE) and the quality factor through the LSPR effect. It is verified by a numerical simulation of the finite element method (FEM). The optimized parameters were found by modulating the shape and geometric dimensions. Owing to the significant LSPR from the Au bowties, a PMOKE amplification signal spectrum with narrow linewidth, and a high amplitude with high-sensing performance was achieved. Compared with the bare magnetic film alone, by optimizing the relevant parameters of the LSPR structure, the maximum signal increases 3255 times, and the quality factor can be greatly improved, which would provide important guidance and help for the practical application of MO devices.
