Abstract:
The resonant characteristics of microwave photonic crystals associated with the effect of the appearance of photonic Tamm states in the bandgap in the case of using electromagnetic radiation absorber in the form of structure with continuous water layer as an interface layer have been theoretically described and experimentally studied. It has been established that an increase in the thickness of the distilled water layer leads to damped oscillations of the frequency and amplitude of the Tamm resonance.
Keywords:photonic Tamm states, absorbers, water-containing structures, microwave range.
