Resumen:
|
In this work, an Indium Nitride (InN) dielectric overlay has been used to develop a surface plasmon resonance optical fiber sensor. Although InN is a very promising material in electronics industry, this is the first time that this kind of material is used for optical sensing. The obtained results show an improvement of the reliability and long term stability with respect to previous devices made with the same technology. More remarkably, the sensitivity increases up to 11,800 nm/RIU in the range of outer refractive indices between 1.415 and 1.429, the highest sensitivity achieved with this kind of devices. Therefore, a novel application of the InN to optical fiber sensors is demonstrated. The use of this material would be of great interest to produce new SPR-based devices for chemical and biological sensing.
