A Metal-Assisted Silicon Slot Waveguide for Highly Sensitive Gas Detection

A metal-assisted silicon slot waveguide for highly sensitive gas detection is proposed. To show the superiority of the proposed structure, the optical confinement factor in the gas region and the sensitivity are theoretically investigated using the 2-D vector finite element method. Numerical results...
