One-way optical tunneling induced by nonreciprocal dispersion of Tamm states in magnetophotonic crystals.
We show that optical Tamm states (OTSs) with nonreciprocal dispersion can be formed at the boundary separating two different magnetophotonic crystals magnetized in the Voigt geometry. At the frequencies of the Tamm states, one-way optical tunneling can be achieved. The nonreciprocity features of OTSs originate from the simultaneous violation of reciprocity, time-reversal, and all related spatia...
متن کاملOptical Tamm states in one-dimensional magnetophotonic structures.
We demonstrate the existence of a spectrally narrow localized surface state, the so-called optical Tamm state, at the interface between one-dimensional magnetophotonic and nonmagnetic photonic crystals. The state is spectrally located inside the photonic band gaps of each of the photonic crystals comprising this magnetophotonic structure. This state is associated with a sharp transmission peak ...

متن کاملNormal mode coupling and Bloch states in elliptically birefringent 1D photonic crystals
A number of publications have discussed the propagation of electromagnetic waves in onedimensional birefringent stratified media [1, 2]. Of particular interest is the formulation pioneered by P. Yeh that employs a translation matrix approach for periodic structures. The propagation of light across a single period is analyzed in conjunction with Floquet’s theorem to determine the dispersion rela...
متن کاملNonlinear Tamm states in layered metaldielectric metamaterials
Surface modes appear as a special type of waves localized near an interface separating two different media. In optics, linear electromagnetic surface waves are known to exist at an interface separating homogeneous and periodic dielectric media [1] as well as in layered structures containing thin metal films [2–4]. The interest in the study of nonlinear electromagnetic surface waves has been ren...
