摘要

This study presents a metasurface-based salinity sensor integrating MXene, copper, and graphene. The sensor design features a central square resonator surrounded by circular resonators and a square ring resonator, all mounted on a graphene-coated base with SiO₂ substrate. Performance analysis demonstrates sensitivity values ranging from 270 GHzRIU−1 to 286 GHzRIU−1 across refractive indices of 1.3325–1.3505, with figures of merit between 5.516 and 5.831 RIU⁻1. The sensor exhibits excellent linearity in frequency response to both refractive index (R2 = 99.997%) and concentration (R2 = 100%). Random Forest Regression modelling validates the sensor's performance, achieving R2 values up to 95% for varying graphene chemical potentials. The design shows robust performance across different incident angles and resonator dimensions, maintaining consistent detection accuracy of 20.408 and measurement uncertainty of 0.001.
