提出了一种利用金属层和布拉格反射镜之间夹入克尔介质的光Tamm腔实现全光开关的方法。结果表明，在外部光注入控制下，顺时针和逆时针的双光子开关的激发是由于光学Tamm态的存在。此外，光学Tamm腔的偏振特性被发现是敏感的外部光注入的偏振。
All-optical bistable switching is proposed to realize by using an optical Tamm cavity in which a Kerr medium is sandwiched between a metal layer and a Bragg mirror. Results show that the excitation of clockwise and counterclockwise bistable switching under the control of external optical injection is due to the presence of optical Tamm states. In addition, the bistable characteristics of optical Tamm cavities are found to be sensitive to the polarization of external optical injection.
