Abstract:In order to obtain optical Tamm state properties, a silver-photonic crystal-silver structure was set up, the wavelength properties and absorption characteristics of OTS were studies with Drude-Lorentz model of silver and the characteristic matrix method. It is releved that there are two OTS in this structure, called OTS1 and OTS2. The center wavelength of OTS1 and OTS2 moves to the short wave direction and the center wavelength spacs of them decreases with the increase of incident angle. The center wavelength of OTS1 and OTS2 moves to the short wave direction and the center wavelength space of them decreases with the increase of silver layer thickness. Both OTS1 and OTS2 have a larger absorption rate, and they present similar changing rules with various silver layer thickness.
