We investigate the spatial Bloch-like oscillations in planar double-period silver waveguide arrays. Three types of oscillation modes are obtained in the sixth-generation double-period structure at different incident position, namely positive oscillation mode, negative oscillation mode and breathing-wave–like oscillation mode. The period of the three types of oscillation modes increases when the incident wavelength is redshifted, while the period of the up-oscillation and down-oscillation of the breathing-wave–like oscillation mode decreases and increases, respectively, in the gradient sixth-generation double-period system.
