Possible Realization of Optical Quadratic and Dirac Points in Woodpile Photonic Crystals

Hai-Xiao Wang, Yige Chen, Guang-Yu Guo +2

The simulation of fermionic relativistic physics, e.g., Dirac and Weyl physics, has led to the discovery of many unprecedented phenomena in photonics, of which the optical-frequenc…

Ideal type-II Weyl points in twisted one-dimensional dielectric photonic crystals

Ying Chen, Hai-xiao Wang, Qiaoliang Bao +2

Weyl points are the degenerate points in three-dimensional momentum space with nontrivial topological phase, which are usually realized in classical system with structure and symme…

Higher-order topological phases in tunable -symmetric photonic crystals

Hai-Xiao Wang, Li Liang, Bin Jiang +3

We demonstrate that multiple higher-order topological transitions can be triggered via the continuous change of the geometry in kagome photonic crystals composed of three dielectri…
