Hybrid states formed by the optical Tamm and defect modes in a one-dimensional photonic crystal

We investigate the spectral properties of a one-dimensional photonic crystal with the structural defect conjugated to the nanocomposite layer. The nanocomposite consists of spherical silver particles dispersed in the matrix. We demonstrate the possibility of implementing the hybrid state formed by the interaction between the optical Tamm and defect modes. It is shown that the hybrid state resonance splitting can be changes by varying the structure parameters.
