The system achieved a figure of merit of 183.2 RIU−1, resolving dielectric contrasts below 0.1%.
It successfully differentiated CO (εr = 1.00262) from air (εr = 1.00054) under standard conditions.
Abstract
This paper presents a carbon monoxide (CO) detection mechanism achieved through further improvement of the sensing antenna based on hybrid spoof localized surface plasmons (SLSPs) and cavity resonance. Unlike conventional approaches relying on chemical reactions or photoelectric effects, the all-metal configuration detects dielectric variations through microwave-regime resonance frequency shifts, enabling CO/air differentiation with theoretically enhanced robustness and environmental adaptability. The designed system achieves measured figures of merit (FoMs) of 183.2 RIU−1, resolving gases with dielectric contrast below 0.1%. Experimental validation successfully discriminated CO (εr = 1.00262) from air (εr = 1.00054) under standard atmospheric pressure at 18 °C.
