Photonic Floquet Topological Insulators
Mikael C. Rechtsman, Julia M. Zeuner, Yonatan Plotnik +4
The topological insulator is a fundamentally new phase of matter, with the striking property that the conduction of electrons occurs only on its surface, not within the bulk, and t…
Topological creation and destruction of edge states in photonic graphene
Mikael C. Rechtsman, Yonatan Plotnik, Julia M. Zeuner +2
We demonstrate theoretically and experimentally a topological transition of classical light in "photonic graphene": an array of waveguides arranged in the honeycomb geometry. As th…
Observation of novel edge states in photonic graphene
Mikael C. Rechtsman, Yonatan Plotnik, Daohong Song +8
The intriguing properties of graphene, a two-dimensional material composed of a honeycomb lattice of carbon atoms, have attracted a great deal of interest in recent years. Specific…
