Induced transparency by coupling of Tamm and defect states in tunable terahertz plasmonic crystals

Tamm states on subwavelength, reconfigurable plasmonic crystals are studied in the terahertz regime. By introducing an independently controlled plasmonic defect, an electromagnetically induced transparency phenomenon is revealed.
