Abstract
A new parameter is introduced to benchmark the gas sensitivity of plasmonic sensors. This parameter takes into account both the surface sensitivity and the plasmon decay of the used nanoparticles and considers adsorbed gas layers on the sensor surface. Its applicability was tested with a novel plasmonic sensor based on ellipsoidal gold nanoparticles arranged in tightly packed hexagonal lattices, exposed to the exchange of different inorganic gases. The controversy often present when comparing the response of plasmonic sensors tested in liquids and gases is resolved by using this new parameter.
