Abstract

In this paper, a graphene-based plasmonic antenna is presented to operate as a gas senor based on chemical doping. The proposed structure has a periodic geometry. The principle design is based on manipulating the dipole plasmonic antenna geometry to enhance the electric field in the gap of the antenna as a small change of graphene Fermi energy because of the molecules adsorption results in a significant shift of the resonance wavelength of the diffraction spectrum. The results demonstrate that the proposed sensor enables the detection of \(\text {NO}_2\) gas by around 1160 molecules with steps of 15.07 nm of the resonance wavelength shifts in the transmission spectrum. It is believed that this sensing structure could open a new window to realize a variety of graphene-based photonic sensors, for potential applications in the fields of biology, medicine, and chemistry.
