ABSTRACT
We propose an all-dielectric asymmetric ring-cylindrical metasurface. Based on the analysis of transmission characteristics and the calculation of electromagnetic field distribution of the metasurface with this element structure, it is found that the high Q resonance of the ultra-narrowband can be realized when the symmetry of the ring-cylindrical structure is broken. Meanwhile, it is found that the degree of asymmetry of the ring, the refractive index of the material, the radius of the ring, and the substrate have great influence on the Q value and resonant frequency of the metasurface. Our proposed metasurface structure is applied to the detection of biological molecules based on the change in refractive index of biomolecular solutions. The designed metasurface with high sensitivity to detect biomolecules with different refractive indices, the Q value can reach 365.03, and the sensitivity is increased by 90.36 GHz/RIU compared to that without substrate, while the figure of merit value is as high as 100.56, providing label-free detection of biomolecules.
