Abstract
Abstract Two optical sensing elements based on the surface plasmon waves at the plasmonic-photonic-crystal/air interface, excited in the Kretschmann configuration, are proposed. The sensing elements are designed to detect air humidity and NO2 concentration in air. The angular reflectance spectra of the sensing elements are theoretically analyzed as the function of the analyte concentration. The proposed NO2-sensing element has no cross-sensitivity to humidity. The two sensing elements are based on the same multilayer metal-dielectric structure with the only exception on different gas-sensitive material layers. When combined, the sensing elements can be used to measure humidity and NO2 concentration in humid air.
