摘要

We presented a significant improvement of the evanescent field ratio in a ridge waveguide modified into a dual hybrid plasmonic waveguide by tapering the middle section of the waveguide and placing a gold layer on both sides with a sub-wavelength gap. The waveguide geometry is optimized at 3.392 mu m which is an absorption line of methane gas. The proposed waveguide scheme provides a large waveguide cross-section which facilitates a flexible butt-coupling of light with an enhanced evanescent field in the middle. To validate the study, the evanescent field ratio, propagation loss, confinement factor and electric field distribution of the waveguide is studied via the finite element method. Additionally, the device fabrication steps and optical setup is also proposed. An elevated evanescent field ratio of 0.74 is obtained with a propagation loss of similar to 0.7 dB/mu m. The sensitivity of 0.0715 (mW/gas conc.) is obtained for the proposed waveguide scheme by calculating the decay in transmission power due to absorption by the gas in the medium.
