An APW + lo approach, takes into account both electrons (core and valence) in a self-consistent manner throughout the process of full-potential treatment. A generalized gradient approximation and a structural model were used to conduct the analyses on the structural electronic, magnetic, and optical characteristics. Half-metallicity could be seen in the bulk form of the compound with an energy gap of 2.23 eV in the spin-up channel and an equilibrium lattice constant of 8.23 Å. In addition, the half-metallic behavior was maintained even after the crossover to the monolayer, which had an energy gap of 1.90 eV. In order to determine the band structures and the density of states that demonstrate the half-metallic character of the material, it is important to carry out an examination of the material's electronic properties. Rendering to the Slater-Pauling statute (Zt-4), the total magnetic moment equals 2 µ_B for each unit cell. The effect of the electric field and biaxial strain on a monolayer of AgN was also studied to calculate electronic, magnetic, and frequency-dependent optical properties such as, dielectric functions, reflectivity, absorption, optical conductivity, and energy loss. The findings highlighted that the AgN's monolayer is promise for spintronics applications.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":584,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Physics","volume":"99 3","pages":"927 - 942"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141776775","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To evaluate the efficiency of this model, various optical parameters are analysed using finite element method based COMSOL Multiphysics Software. Different analytes namely methanol (1.317), water (1.330), ethanol (1.354) and benzene (1.366) have been considered for the sensing purpose in this study. The core region is infiltrated with different analytes separately. The model is simulated in THz regime (0.5–1.5 THz) to evaluate optical properties. The proposed structure design exhibits a high relative sensitivity of 96.85%, 97.32%, 97.99% and 98.33% for methanol, water, ethanol, and benzene, respectively at an operating frequency of 1.3 THz. The proposed model demonstrates exceptionally low confinement loss values which are 2.22 × 10^–12 dB/m for methanol, 1.16 × 10^–11 dB/m for water, 1.34 × 10^–11 dB/m for ethanol and is 1.30 × 10^–12 dB/m for benzene. Additionally, the effective material loss for the designed PCF also comes out to be very low for all the analytes, 0.0044 cm⁻¹ for methanol, 0.0040 cm⁻¹ water, 0.0034 cm⁻¹ for ethanol and 0.0032 cm⁻¹, for benzene. Furthermore, the PCF shows large effective mode area and numerical aperture (NA) within the mentioned range, at 1.3 THz. The NA values obtained at 1.3 THz are 0.32 for methanol, 0.40 for water, 0.32 for ethanol, and 0.32 for benzene. The obtained Effective mode Area (EMA) values are 1.46 × 10⁵ μm² for methanol, 1.45 × 10⁵ μm² for water, 1.44 × 10⁵ μm² for ethanol and 1.43 × 10⁵ μm², for benzene. Subsequently, the optimal profile provides birefringence values of 0.0009 for methanol, 0.0010 for water, and 0.0011 for both ethanol and benzene. The practical implementation of the proposed PCF structure is possible using subsisting modern fabrication techniques. Consequently, the proposed PCF design should be helpful in industrial areas for chemical research, food and biomedical sensing.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":584,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Physics","volume":"99 3","pages":"997 - 1005"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141776852","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
