An on-chip refractive index (RI) sensor, which is based on the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of periodic gold nanorings array, is presented. The structure parameters and performance of LSPR-based sensors are optimized by analyzing and comparing the LSPR extinction spectra. The mechanism of the enhancement of plasma resonance in a ring array is discussed by the simulation results. A feasible preparation scheme of the nanorings array is proposed and verified by coating a gold film and etching on the photonic crystals. Based on the optimum sensing structure, an RI sensor is constructed with a RI sensitivity of 577 nm/refractive index unit (RIU) and a figure of merit (FOM) of 6.1, which is approximately 2 times that of previous reports.
