▎ 摘  要

We study the transmission characteristics of surface plasmons at the interface of a one-dimensional photonic crystal (1DPC) and a monolayer graphene sheet. The composite structure with a plasmonic band gap (PGB) was obtained by covering a graphene sheet on the lateral side of the 1DPC. Defect modes in these structures appeared when defect layers were inserted in the 1DPC. On the condition that the chemical potential of graphene is much larger than k(B)T, the PBG and defect mode shift to higher frequencies as the chemical potential increases. As the carrier density in graphene can be controlled by the gate voltage, both the PBG and defect mode can be easily tuned by the chemical potential, which is determined by the carrier density.
