摘要： In this paper, we investigate the quintessence models with an oscillating equation of state (EOS) and its potentials. From the constructed potentials, which have an EOS of $\omega_{\phi}=\omega_0+\omega_1\sin z$, we find that they are all the oscillating functions of the field $\phi$, and the oscillating amplitudes decrease (or increase) with $\phi$. From the evolutive equation of the field $\phi$, we find that this is caused by the expansion of the universe. This also makes it very difficult to build a model whose EOS oscillates forever. However one can build a model with EOS oscillating for a certain period of time. Then we discuss three quintessence models, which are the combinations of the invert power law functions and the oscillating functions of the field $\phi$. We find that they all follow the oscillating EOS.
