Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical fiber devices, in particular to a whispering gallery mode spherical optical microcavity refractive index sensor and a measuring device based on surface plasmons. Background technique [0002] Whispering gallery mode optical microcavity is an optical element that confines the light field in a micron-scale space area based on the total internal reflection effect. It has the advantages of high energy density, high quality factor, and small space size. Its mode field is mainly distributed in the optical Inside the microcavity, but part of the energy exists outside the optical microcavity in the form of evanescent field. The evanescent field of the optical microcavity can sense the change of the refractive index of the external medium, and then convert it into the change of the transmission line, so as to realize the sensing and measurement of the external refractive index. However, due to the large r...
