A tunable dual Fano-like plasmonic structure consisting of metal-insulator-metal (MIM), baffle and a rectangular cavity containing two identical rectangular metal blocks is obtained. Numerical simulation results show that there are dual Fano resonances in the transmission spectrum of the structure, which can be tuned by changing the geometric parameters of the structure. In addition, due to the apparent asymmetry of the Fano resonances, the system was developed as an effective refractive index sensor (RIS) with a sensitivity of 853 nm/RIU and figure of merit (FOM) of 1631. It is considered that this structure has important application value in high integrated photonic circuit.
