Infrared metasurfaces have exhibited exceptional optical properties that differ from naturally occurring metallic and dielectric nanostructure, enabling non-destructive and label-free sensing in a broadband region. However, implementing wavelength multiplexing sensors in broadband infrared has faced significant challenges. These challenges arise from the difficulty in efficiently exciting high  Q  resonances at specific wavelengths and the inability to individually tune each resonance. Herein, we present a dual resonant metasurface that utilizes a metal–dielectric–metal plasmonic grating and a dielectric–metal channel. By adjusting the vertical and horizontal structures of metasurface, we can independently modify the spectrum of the metasurface in the near-infrared and mid-infrared regions. This broadband infrared metasurface exhibits robust spectral regulation, enabling a polarization-dependent strategy for the dual-resonance. It offers a competitive advantage over traditional metallic nanostructure in refractive index sensing at the second near-infrared window and ultrasensitive vibrational spectroscopy in mid-infrared. Specifically, our proposed metasurface achieves protein concentration sensing and dynamic monitoring of protein concentration in the infrared two-zone. Additionally, it enhances the mid-infrared absorption of amide II with a high  Q  resonance. The metasurface which combines wavelength multiplexing and polarization dependent switch for protein recognition and trace detection, presents a novel approach for developing high-performance sensors and Integrated photonics sensors in the broadband infrared region.
