Observation of a high-energy Tamm plasmon state in the near-IR region
Observation of a high-energy Tamm plasmon state in the near-IR region
We report on the experimental observation of a Tamm plasmon state in the near-IR region characterized by an anomalously high energy level located in the upper half of the photonic band gap. Such a "blue"Tamm plasmon was demonstrated at the interface between a conventional, completely periodic Bragg reflector and a nanostructured nonresonant thin gold grating. We study the effect of the grating period on the characteristics of the anomalous state and show that the anomaly results from a nontrivial topology of the nanograting's optical near field, which cannot be captured by the effective medium approach and transfer matrix method commonly employed in the analysis of Tamm plasmons.

Abstract
We report on the experimental observation of a Tamm plasmon state in the near-IR region characterized by an anomalously high energy level located in the upper half of the photonic band gap. Such a "blue"Tamm plasmon was demonstrated at the interface between a conventional, completely periodic Bragg reflector and a nanostructured nonresonant thin gold grating. We study the effect of the grating period on the characteristics of the anomalous state and show that the anomaly results from a nontrivial topology of the nanograting's optical near field, which cannot be captured by the effective medium approach and transfer matrix method commonly employed in the analysis of Tamm plasmons.
