Abstract Sensing technologies based on plasmonic nanomaterials are of interest for various chemical, biological, environmental, and medical applications. In this work, an incorporation strategy of colloidal plasmonic nanoparticles (pNPs) in microporous polymer for realizing distinct sorption‐induced plasmonic sensing is reported. This approach is demonstrated by introducing tin‐doped indium oxide pNPs into a polymer of intrinsic microporosity (PIM‐1). The composite film (pNPs‐polymer) provides distinct and tunable optical features on the fiber optic (FO) platform that can be used as a signal transducer for gas sensing (e.g., CO ₂ ) under atmospheric conditions. The resulting pNPs‐polymer composite demonstrates high sensitivity response on FO in the evanescent field configuration, provided by the dramatic response of modes above the total‐internal‐reflection angle. Furthermore, by varying the pNPs content in the polymer matrix, the optical behavior of the pNPs‐polymer composite film can be tuned to affect the operational wavelength by over several hundred nanometers and the sensitivity of the sensor in the near‐infrared range. It is also shown that the pNPs‐polymer composite film exhibits remarkable stability over a period of more than 10 months by mitigating the physical aging issue of the polymer.
