The plasmonic nature of the out-of-plane symmetry-protected BICs enables high field enhancement together with high q-factors from the near- to mid-infrared regions, which were utilised for refractive index and pixelated molecular sensing.enQ-factorThree-dimensional displaysRefractive indexPlasmonsMetasurfacesSensorsPolymersTechnology::600: TechnologyOut-of-plane symmetry-protected bound states in the continuum in a plasmonic nanofin metasurfaceConference Paper10.1109/CLEO-PR62338.2022.10432450Conference Paper
