in this paper, it has been shown that the refractive index (RI) sensitivity of higher-order cladding modes of a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) can be enhanced significantly with the deposition of gold nanoparticle over the surface. A detailed numerical study is being accomplished in this work. Initially, the sensitivity of higher-order cladding modes is evaluated with a dedicated multi-layer numerical model of FBG. Subsequently, thin nanoparticles of gold are being considered over the surface of FBG. A Four-layer model is employed for the computation of sensitivity of cladding modes of FBG. Almost a '2.5' fold enhancement of sensitivity is found with the utilization of gold nanoparticles. This proposed FBG sensors can be utilized in highly sensitive chemical and biological sensing applications.
