ABSTRACT
The transverse magneto-optical Kerr effect (TMOKE) with gas sensing ability was comprehensively investigated in this study by directly patterning a subwavelength periodic nanogroove on a cobalt film. High-amplitude TMOKE was observed for the proposed structure, which was 243 times as intense as that of a smooth film. Further, the physical mechanism responsible for this significant improvement is elucidated by the effective activation of surface plasmon resonance at the gas-cobalt interface. The mechanism was established by investigating the electric field distributions at a resonant angle of incidence and the reflectance spectra associated with the metallic nanogroove grating structure. Moreover, we demonstrate that this scheme has a high detection sensitivity of up to 112.2° per refractive index unit and a large figure of merit, allowing the system to be integrated with microfluidics for sensing applications.
