Metasurfaces exhibit unique optical properties that depend on the ratio of their refractive index and that of their surroundings. As such, they are effective for sensing global changes in refractive index based on the shifts of resonances in their reflectivity spectra. However, when used as a biosensor, the metasurface can be exposed to a spatial distribution of biomolecules that brings about gradients in refractive index along the plane of the metasurface. Such gradients produce complex global reflectivity spectrum but with distinct optical enhancements in localized areas along the metasurface. Here, we propose a unique sensing paradigm that images and maps out the optical enhancements that are correlated with the spatial distribution of the refractive index. Moreover, we designed a metasurface whose resonances can be tuned to detect a range of refractive indices. Our metasurface consists of silicon nanopillars with a cylindrical nanotrench at their centers and a metal plane at the base. To assess its feasibility, we performed numerical simulations to show that the design effectively produces the desired reflectivity spectrum with resonances in the near-infrared. Using an incident light tuned to one of its resonances, our simulations further show that the field enhancements are correlated with the spatial mapping of the gradients of refractive indices along the metasurface.
