Topologically Protected Transport in Engineered Mechanical Systems
Tirth Shah, Christian Brendel, Vittorio Peano +1
Mechanical vibrations are being harnessed for a variety of purposes and at many length scales, from the macroscopic world down to the nanoscale. The considerable design freedom in…
Topological phonon transport in an optomechanical system
Hengjiang Ren, Tirth Shah, Hannes Pfeifer +4
Recent advances in cavity-optomechanics have now made it possible to use light not just as a passive measuring device of mechanical motion, but also to manipulate the motion of mec…
Snowflake Topological Insulator for Sound Waves
Christian Brendel, Vittorio Peano, Oskar Painter +1
We show how the snowflake phononic crystal structure, which has been realized experimentally recently, can be turned into a topological insulator for sound waves. This idea, based…
Pseudomagnetic fields for sound at the nanoscale
Christian Brendel, Vittorio Peano, Oskar Painter +1
There is a growing effort in creating chiral transport of sound waves. However, most approaches so far are confined to the macroscopic scale. Here, we propose a new approach suitab…
Topological phase transitions and chiral inelastic transport induced by the squeezing of light
Vittorio Peano, Martin Houde, Christian Brendel +2
We show how the squeezing of light can lead to the formation of topological states. Such states are characterized by non-trivial Chern numbers, and exhibit protected edge modes whi…
