Abstract
In this paper, we have theoretically analyzed and designed a 1D PhC microcavity sensor with SPR based on the total internal reflection mirror using analytic calculation and FDTD methods. The proposed structure has many advantages. One of that is a high sensitivity using SPR characteristics. Another is a high Q-factor of the characteristics in the PhC microcavity structure. The incident light has double resonance characteristics, because the filtered light by PhC structure is met the thin metal film for SPR effect. We have also observed the change of resonance characteristics according to the variation of effective index on the metal film.
