Journal ArticleDOI
Topological hybrid silicon microlasers.
Han Zhao,Pei Miao,M. H. Teimourpour,Simon Malzard,Ramy El-Ganainy,Henning Schomerus,Liang Feng +6 more
TL;DR: Topological effects, first observed in condensed matter physics, are now also studied in optical systems, extending the scope to active topological devices, and Zhao et al. combine topological physics with non-Hermitian photonics, demonstrating a topological microlaser on a silicon platform.
Journal ArticleDOI
Non-Hermitian topological light steering.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate arbitrary robust light steering in reconfigurable non-Hermitian junctions, in which chiral topological states can propagate at an interface of the gain and loss domains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photonic zero mode in a non-Hermitian photonic lattice.
TL;DR: A robust photonic zero mode sustained by a spatial non-Hermitian phase transition in a parity-time (PT) symmetric lattice, despite the same topological order across the entire system, is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Topological Hybrid Silicon Microlasers
Han Zhao,Pei Miao,M. H. Teimourpour,Simon Malzard,Ramy El-Ganainy,Henning Schomerus,Liang Feng +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a hybrid silicon microlaser structure supporting a topologically protected zero-mode lasing was proposed, where the mode competition is diminished in favor of a pre-defined topological state, reflecting the charge conjugation symmetry induced by the gain profile.
Journal ArticleDOI
Non-Hermitian photonics promises exceptional topology of light
TL;DR: The band degeneracy, either the exceptional point of a non-Hermitian system or the Dirac point associated with a topological system, can feature distinct symmetry and topology that will further produce more exotic topological effects in synthetic matter.
