We report for the first time the bandgap engineering of Tamm plasmon photonic crystals - Tamm plasmon structures of which the metalic layer is periodically patterned into lattice of subwavelength period. By adopting a double period design, we evidenced experimentally a complete photonic bandgap up to $150,nm$ in the telecom range. Moreover, such design offers a great flexibility to tailor on-demand, and independently, the band-gap size from $30,nm$ to $150,nm$ and its spectral position within $50,nm$. Finally, by implementing a defect cavity within the Tamm plasmon photonic crystal, an ultimate cavity of $1.6mu m$ supporting a single highly confined Tamm mode is experimentally demonstrated. All experimental results are in perfect agreement with numerical calculations. Our results suggests the possibility to engineer novel band dispersion with surface modes of hybrid metalic/dielectric structures, thus open the way to Tamm plasmon towards applications in topological photonics, metamaterials and parity symmetry physics.
This paper gives an overview of recent work on three-dimensional (3D) photonic crystals with a full and complete 3D photonic band gap. We review five main aspects: 1) spontaneous emission inhibition, 2) spatial localization of light within a tiny nan
Specific features of the defect modes of cholesteric liquid crystals (CLCs) with an isotropic defect, as well as their photonic density of states, Q factor, and emission, have been investigated. The effect of the thicknesses of the defect layer and t
We have theoretically demonstrated Rabi-like splitting and self-referenced refractive index sensing in hybrid plasmonic-1D photonic crystal structures. The coupling between Tamm plasmon and cavity photon modes are tuned by incorporating a low refract
We demonstrate theoretically the existence of one-way Tamm plasmon-polaritons on the interface between magnetophotonic crystals and conducting metal oxides. In contrast to conventional surface plasmon-polaritons (SPPs), Tamm plasmon-polariton (TPPs)
A gyroid structure is a distinct morphology that is triply periodic and consists of minimal isosurfaces containing no straight lines. We have designed and synthesized amorphous silicon (a-Si) mid-infrared gyroid photonic crystals that exhibit a compl
