▎ 摘  要

The steering of guided light in surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensing platforms introduced more than eight decades ago from the first proposed optical sensor in 1983. However, sensing the environmental variation considering transverse modes is still require the attention from the scientist. Here, for the first time, by considering steering of guided light a high-performance SPR sensor base on Otto structure is proposed. By incorporating the graphene and white graphene in to a prism-waveguide configuration, we calculated the excitation of both TE(TM) modes as refractive index is changed from 1 to 1.04. to analysis of the structure finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) is applied. To benchmark of the structure performance parameters including sensitivity, figure of merit, polarization extinction ratio (PER), and insertion loss (IL) are calculated. Numerical results show that maximum sensitivity and figure of merit are obtained for TM modes of 1226 and 27 respectively. In such a case, graphene monolayer is applied. By considering coupling condition, at the mu c = 0.4 eV, the maximum value of PER is 75 dB, and IL is 0.022 dB. Moreover, it is obtained that in all these conditions PER is higher than 8 dB, and IL is less than 0.04 dB.
