Abstract

Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is widely used in photonic crystal fiber sensors. In this work, a photonic crystal fiber sensor based on HE11 mode excited SPR is designed and analyzed by the finite element method. The maximum wavelength sensitivity, optimal resolution, and amplitude sensitivity of the optical fiber sensor are 24,600 nm/RIU, 4.07 × 10−6 RIU, and 1164.13 RIU−1, respectively, for the refractive index range between 1.29 and 1.39. The sensor has excellent properties and wide application prospects in bimolecular and biochemical sensing, environmental monitoring, food safety, and other fields.
