摘要：With the development of advanced nanofabrication technologies over the past decade, plasmonic nanostructures have attracted wide attention for their potential in label-free biosensing applications. However, the sensing performance of nanostructured plasmonic sensors is primarily limited by the broad-line-width features with low peak-to-dip signal ratio in the extinction spectra that result from strong radiative damping. Here, we propose and systematically investigate the in-plane and out-of-plane dipolar interactions in an array of plasmonic nanoring resonators that are from the spatial combination of classic nanohole and nanodisk structures. Originating from the strong coupling of the dipolar modes from parent nanohole and nanodisk structures, the subradiant lattice plasmon resonance in the nanoring resonator array exhibits narrow-line width spectral features with high peak-to-dip signal ratio and strong near-field electromagnetic enhancement, making it an ideal platform for high-sensitivity chemical and biomedical sensing. We experimentally demonstrate that the plasmonic nanoring resonator array can be used for high-sensitivity refractive index sensing and real-time monitoring of biomolecular specific binding interactions at nanomolar concentration. Moreover, due to its simple normal incident illumination scheme polarization independent optical response, we further transfer the plasmonic nanoring resonator array onto the optical fiber tip to demonstrate an integrated and miniaturized platform for label-free remote biosensing, which implies that the plasmonic nanoring resonator array may be a potential candidate for developing high performance and highly integrated photonic biosensing systems.
