摘要

This paper presents a high-sensitivity U-shaped square cavity photonic crystal fiber temperature sensor based on SPR effect. The structural parameters of the sensor are adjusted based on systematic optimization and numerical simulation by full-vector finite element method (FEM). The results show excellent sensing performance of the sensor in the temperature detection range of 0-100 °C, including a maximum wavelength sensitivity of -21.6 nm/°C, a figure of merit (FOM) of -0.30 °C− 1, and a temperature resolution of up to 4.63 × 10− 3 °C. The design of the U-shaped square cavity structure proposed in this paper outperforms its existing competitors by realizing a wider detection range and higher comprehensive performance index, in addition to a simplified preparation process. The sensor exhibits good application prospects in industrial manufacturing, medical diagnosis, environmental monitoring, and power equipment temperature monitoring.
