All-Dielectric Surface-Enhanced Infrared Absorption-Based Gas Sensor Using Guided Resonance
Abstract
The surface-enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA) technique has been focusing on the metallic resonator structures for decades, exploring different approaches to enhance sensitivity. Although the high enhancement is achieved, the dissipative loss and strong heating are the intrinsic drawbacks of metals. Recently, the dielectric platform has emerged as a promising alternative. In this work, we report a guided resonance-based all-dielectric photonic crystal slab as the platform for SEIRA. The guided resonance-induced enhancement in the effective path length and electric field, together with gas enrichment polymer coating, leads to a detection limit of 20 ppm in carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) sensing. This work explores the feasibility to apply low loss all-dielectric structures as a surface enhancement method in the transmission mode.

Molecular enrichment strategies bring additional working requirements for specific molecules, impeding global molecular recognition.
“The molecular enrichment strategies, including functionalized chemical bonding17,18, chemical reaction19,20, physical adsorption21–23, optical trapping24 as well as passive trapping by undercut structure25–28 bring in the additional working requirements (e.g., chemical stimuli, temperature, pressure, pump power, etc.) for specific molecules, impeding the system for global molecular recognition.”

Three approaches to optimize nanoantenna sensing by increasing coupling efficiency μ are hotspot release, molecule enrichment, and squeezing adjacent nanoantennas into a nanogap.
“Figure 2b summarizes three approaches to optimize nanoantenna sensing by increasing μ. Hotspots release is proposed to increase accessible sensing areas for analytes, which are usually blocked by the substrate, to further enhance the coupling efficiency25–28.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
