Abstract
We proposed a high-performance integrated optical sensor based on a stacked resonant compound grating (SRCG). The transmission spectrum of a SRCG is investigated by the theoretical model that combines the coupled mode theory with the eigenmode information of the grating structures. It is found that the spectral width of the SRCG is controlled by changing its structural parameters such as the strip depth, the period of the grating, and cavity length. The simulation results, which are verified by finite element method (FEM), show that the sensitivity of the sensor is 401.8 nm/RIU with its figure of merit (FOM) as high as 57404. The presented sensor is a promising application for high-performance biosensing.
