Topological Photonics
Tomoki Ozawa,Hannah M. Price,Alberto Amo,Nathan Goldman,Mohammad Hafezi,Ling Lu,Mikael C. Rechtsman,David Schuster,Jonathan Simon,Oded Zilberberg,Iacopo Carusotto +10 more
TL;DR: Topological photonics is a rapidly emerging field of research in which geometrical and topological ideas are exploited to design and control the behavior of light as mentioned in this paper, which holds great promise for applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photonic Floquet topological insulators
Mikael C. Rechtsman,Julia M. Zeuner,Yonatan Plotnik,Yaakov Lumer,Daniel K. Podolsky,Felix Dreisow,Stefan Nolte,Mordechai Segev,Alexander Szameit +8 more
TL;DR: This work proposes and experimentally demonstrate a photonic topological insulator free of external fields and with scatter-free edge transport—a photonic lattice exhibiting topologically protected transport of visible light on the lattice edges.
Journal ArticleDOI
Topological insulator laser: Theory
Gal Harari,Miguel A. Bandres,Yaakov Lumer,Mikael C. Rechtsman,Yidong Chong,Mercedeh Khajavikhan,Demetrios N. Christodoulides,Mordechai Segev +7 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that topological insulator lasers are theoretically possible and experimentally feasible and shown that the underlying topological properties lead to highly efficient lasers, robust to defects and disorder, with single-mode lasing even at conditions high above the laser threshold.
Journal ArticleDOI
Topologically protected bound states in photonic parity–time-symmetric crystals
Steffen Weimann,Mark Kremer,Yonatan Plotnik,Yaakov Lumer,Stefan Nolte,Konstantinos G. Makris,Mordechai Segev,Mikael C. Rechtsman,Alexander Szameit +8 more
TL;DR: This work shows theoretically and experimentally the existence of states that are localized at the interface between two topologically distinct PT-symmetric photonic lattices, and finds analytical closed form solutions of topological PT-Symmetric interface states.
Journal ArticleDOI
Observation of a Topological Transition in the Bulk of a Non-Hermitian System.
Julia M. Zeuner,Mikael C. Rechtsman,Yonatan Plotnik,Yaakov Lumer,Stefan Nolte,Mark S. Rudner,Mordechai Segev,Alexander Szameit +7 more
TL;DR: The first experimental observation of a topological transition in a non-Hermitian system is presented, and standard methods for examining topological properties, which involve probing edge (or surface) states, are ignored.
