coupling between Tamm plasmons and organic cavity polaritons
is observed at room temperature. Angle-resolved reflectometry experiments
unambiguously indicate the anticrossing in the dispersion relations,
which is characteristic of the strong coupling regime, and the Tamm
plasmon–cavity polariton hybrid states can be energetically
manipulated by tuning the Tamm plasmons. The experimental data are
in good agreement with calculations based on the transfer matrix method.
Emission from the lower energy Tamm plasmon–cavity polariton
hybrid states is observed, and the propagation property of the hybrid
Tamm plasmon polariton is also studied. The real-space imaging experiments
reveal that the propagation distance is larger when the Tamm plasmon
and cavity polariton are strongly coupled in comparison to both the
exciton of the uncoupled organic neat film and the cavity polaritons.
Moreover, the propagation length of the hybrid polaritons increases
as the fraction of Tamm plasmon component in the hybrid states increases.
