Popis: This paper presents a theoretical analysis of a terahertz plasmonic sensor with graphene. The sensor is composed of five layers: prism, SiO 2 , graphene, dielectric sample, and air, where the graphene layer has infinitesimal thickness. The finite element method is used to analyze the electromagnetic response of the sensor. First a sensor in the Otto configuration is considered for model validation and comparison with data available in literature. Then we investigated the reflectivity and electromagnetic field responses of a sensor in the Kretschmann configuration, with and without examples of dielectric samples. The results show some similarities between graphene terahertz and metallic optical sensors.
