Abstract

Surface plasmon-based devices are widely used as highly sensitive optical sensing tools in diverse fields, including biological and chemical detection. The use of digital versatile discs (DVDs) as sensor substrates provides an attractive approach for developing surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensors due to their easy availability, low cost, and nanoscale smooth surface. A silver coating on DVDs acts as the active metal layer and provides favorable plasmonic properties, although its sensitivity and optical stability remain limited. In this study, a two-dimensional (2D) material, MXene, was applied as a reinforcing layer on the silver-coated DVD surface to improve plasmonic performance. A pronounced polarization-dependent behavior is observed in the reflection spectra after MXene integration. This polarization-dependent response is advantageous for the design of compact and portable SPR sensing systems. The dependence of the spectra on the refractive index of the surrounding medium and the incident beam angle was also investigated.

MXene覆盖一维等离子体光栅作为分析物检测器

基于表面等离子体的器件作为高灵敏度的光学传感工具广泛应用于生物和化学检测等各个领域。使用数字多功能光盘（dvd）作为传感器衬底，由于其易于获得，低成本和纳米级光滑表面，为开发表面等离子体共振（SPR）传感器提供了一种有吸引力的方法。dvd上的银涂层作为活性金属层，提供了良好的等离子体特性，尽管其灵敏度和光学稳定性仍然有限。在本研究中，将二维材料MXene作为增强层应用于镀银DVD表面，以提高等离子体性能。在MXene积分后的反射光谱中观察到明显的偏振依赖行为。这种与偏振相关的响应有利于设计紧凑和便携的SPR传感系统。研究了光谱与周围介质折射率和入射光束角度的关系。

期刊介绍： This journal establishes a dedicated channel for physicists, material scientists, chemists, engineers and computer scientists who are interested in photonics and nanostructures, and especially in research related to photonic crystals, photonic band gaps and metamaterials. The Journal sheds light on the latest developments in this growing field of science that will see the emergence of faster telecommunications and ultimately computers that use light instead of electrons to connect components.
