In this paper, we have shown that giant Goos-Hänchen shift of light beam reflected at terahertz frequencies can be achieved by using a composite structure where monolayer graphene is coated on one-dimensional photonic crystal separated by a dielectric slab. This giant Goos-Hänchen shift originates from the enhancement of the electrical field owing to the excitation of optical Tamm states at the interface between the graphene and one-dimensional photonic crystal. It is shown that the Goos-Hänchen shift in this structure can be significantly enlarged negatively and can be switched from negative to positive due to the tunability of graphene’s conductivity. Moreover, the Goos-Hänchen shift of the proposed structure is sensitive to the relaxation time of graphene and the thickness of the top layer, making this structure a good candidate for dynamic tunable optical shift device in terahertz regime.
