Abstract
A technique, and its applications, for high resolution, rapid, and simple nanopatterning. The general method has been demonstrated in several forms and applications. One is patterning nanophotonic structures at an optical fiber tip for refractive index sensing. Another is patterning nanoresonator structures on a sensor substrate for plasmonic effect related detection of VOCs. In the latter example, a graphene oxide coated plasmonic crystal as a gas sensor capable of identifying different gas species using an array of such structures. By coating the surface of multiple identical plasmonic crystals with different thicknesses of Graphene-Oxide (GO) layer, the effective refractive index of the GO layer on each plasmonic crystal is differently modulated when exposed to a specific gas. Identification of various gas species is accomplished using pattern recognition algorithm.
