• standing wave theory by the resonance condition as follows and where Leff is the effective length of the cavity, and φr is the phase shift of SPPs reflected on the facets of the cavity. The transmission characteristics of the plasmonic waveguide system can be analyzed by coupled mode theory (CMT). In this

• 300072, China 10.3762/bjnano.10.236 Abstract A symmetry-breaking nanostructure is proposed to achieve multiple Fano resonances. The nanostructure consists of an asymmetric ring resonator coupled to a plasmonic waveguide. The broken symmetry is introduced by deviating the centers of regular ring. New

• -field sensor based on a MF and a plasmonic structure. As far as we know, the combination of a MF with a plasmonic waveguide has not been reported to date. The unique magnetic-optical properties of MFs are the basis of the optical sensor. The plasmonic structure is a MDM waveguide–cavity coupled system
