Metamaterial Sensor Based on WGM

Sensor utilizing metamaterials have opened up a new field of considerable interest. We extend here the works of our group about metamaterial sensor based on Whispering Gallery Mode (WGM), which is constructed with a microring resonator sensor coated with metamaterial layer. We demonstrate that our sensor possesses higher sensitivity than the traditional sensor since the amplification and penetration of evanescent wave by metamaterials.
