摘要

In this seminal work, we propose a novel-guided wave long-range surface plasmon resonance (GW-LRSPR) sensor. The multilayer sensor structure combines 2S2G prism, cytop, BaTiO3, and silver (Ag). The inclusion of barium titanate (BaTiO3: perovskite material), a material with high permittivity and piezoelectric properties, significantly enhances the imaging sensitivity (Simag) of the proposed GW-LRSPR sensor as it allows for the tuning of the plasmonic response through electrical or mechanical stimuli. Additionally, the use of a Cytop layer as an insulating and protective dielectric layer further enhances the sensor’s durability and optical performance. By incorporating the BaTiO3 layer, the sensor achieves a maximum Simag of 73,031 RIU−1, significantly higher than the 44,542 RIU−1 obtained without the layer. Hence, the GW-LRSPR sensor demonstrated strong capability in analyte detection. The sensor also exhibits a figure of merit (FoM) of 7.3 × 106 RIU−1, with detection accuracies (DA) of 169.49/° and 185.18/° for the LRSPR and GW-LRSPR sensors, respectively. Overall, the proposed GW-LRSPR sensor improves imaging sensitivity by nearly 64% compared to the LRSPR sensor.
