Surface state peculiarities in one-dimensional photonic crystal interfaces

Abstract: We study the optical properties of a photonic crystal interfaced with a uniform medium with the negative dielectric constant or with another photonic crystal. We show that, at such an interface, nonpropagating surface states may arise. These states result in a sharp feature in the transmission and reflection spectra of the system. We also show that interfacing magnetic and nonmagnetic photonic crystals gives rise to giant Faraday and Kerr effects.

“…8 shows the transmittivity versus frequency at different number of periods at the left and right of the defect layer (the whole number of periods is constant). It can be seen that due to a resonance tunneling of an electromagnetic wave through the defectless part of the structure, a narrow transmittivity peak appears [5,6]. The presence of defect layers in the periodic structure causes the appearance of defect modes in the forbidden bands.…”

“…These structures can easily change their characteristics in an external magnetic field. The results of theoretical investigations of spaceinhomogeneous magnetic media were presented in [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. It was considered the reflection from the semiinfinite periodically layered structure composed of alternating semiconductor and insulator layers [10].…”

“…eig,Bz eig (1) where k x eig,Bz is the x-component of the eigenmode's wavevector in the first Brillouin zone, k x eig is the x-component of the eigenmode's wavevector in the absence of the array of slits, π = G T 2 / is the reciprocal lattice constant, and n is an integer number ('diffraction order'). In order to couple the Tamm state and the waveguide mode of interest at the specified wavelength, the following condition must hold true (n might be different for the Tamm state and the waveguide mode):…”

“…">IntroductionThe optical Tamm state, which can occur either on the boundary of two photonic crystals [1,2] or on the boundary of a photonic crystal and a metal film [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12], has recently attracted attention of researchers in nano-optics community. The optical Tamm state in a system with a photonic crystal covered with a metal film is especially interesting because it allows one to combine its complicated physics with the rich physics of plasmon surface waves.…”
