The two square rings are connected via a rectangular patch located between the two of them. The surface plasmon polaritons （SPPs） can be transferred from a square ring to the other through this patch. The finite-difference time-domain method （FDTD） has been used to simulate the device. Applying a pressure on the structure, it deforms, and a red shift of 103 nm in the resonance wavelength has been calculated. The deformation is linearly proportional to the wavelength shift in a wide range of wavelength. The proposed optical plasmonic pressure sensor has a sensitivity of 16.5nm/MPa which makes it very suitable for using in biological and biomedical engineering.展开更多
