Abstract A dual-core and dual D-shaped photonic crystal fiber (PCF) based surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor with silver and Aluminum Nitride (AlN) films is designed. The distribution characteristics of the electromagnetic fields of core and plasmon modes, as well as the sensing properties are numerically studied by finite element method (FEM). The structure parameters of the designed sensor are optimized by the optical loss spectrum. The results show the resonance wavelength variation of 489 nm for the refractive index (RI) range of 1.36~1.42. In addition, a maximum wavelength sensitivity of 13400 nm/RIU with the corresponding RI resolution of 7.46×10-6 RIU is obtained in the RI range of 1.41~1.42. The proposed sensor with the merits of high sensitivity, low cost and simple structure has a wide application in the fields of RI sensing, such as hazardous gas detection, environmental monitoring and biochemical analysis.

A new method proposed in this paper to compute the fitness in Genetic Algorithms (GAs). In this new method the number of regions, which assigned for the population, divides the time. The fitness computation here differ from the previous methods, by compute it for each portion of the population as first pass, then the second pass begin to compute the fitness for population that lye in the portion which have bigger fitness value. The crossover and mutation and other GAs operator will do its work only for biggest fitness portion of the population. In this method, we can get a suitable and accurate group of proper solution for indexed profile of the photonic crystal fiber (PCF).
