Abstract

Sensing devices has been an interesting area of study because of their immense application in practical life. In the present work, the extraordinary optical transmission (EOT) along with surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) excitation at the metal/ dielectric interface is investigated RF-module of COMSOL Multiphysics 5.3a has been used to investigate copper (Cu) nanograting structure on the glass substrate in periodic arrangement of 1-dimensional (1D). The visible-infrared electromagnetic wavelength of 400–900 nm has been used to excite the SPPs at the interface and a light port is provided from the substrate side. The optimum EOT has been investigated at transmission spectra of 0th order. During this process thickness of the slit is fixed at 50 nm, the periodicity of the unit cell is fixed at 700 nm, and the width of the slit changed to check its effect on the EOT. Additionally, phenomena of near field investigation have also used to explore the transmission-based performance of field at thespecificboundary of copper (Cu) and airwhich confirm spectraoutcomesof transmission thorough the fabricated device. The optimum value of EOT foundwhenthe width of slit isat250 nm for the Cu/air interface.The deviceused for this purpose is modeled in COMSOL. Along the EOT the SPPs phenomena is also investigated by using present modeled device.These phenomena are observed by studying the electric and magnetic parts of the device that models the Cu/Air interface. We tested it with different slit widths ranging from 50-450 nm. The coupling efficiency and sensitivity of Cu/Air 1D device design at optimum slit width of 250 nm calculated. Such devices are increasingly applicable in bio photonics sensing of DNA structure, in vivo study of the internal structure of the body, imaging, surface chemical reaction, environmental remediation, and in various solar cell industries (plasmonic solar cell).
