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
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.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental Observation of Optical Bound States in the Continuum
Yonatan Plotnik,Or Peleg,Felix Dreisow,Matthias Heinrich,Stefan Nolte,Alexander Szameit,Mordechai Segev +6 more
TL;DR: These experiments demonstrate ideas initially proposed by von Neumann and Wigner in 1929 and offer new possibilities for integrated optical elements and analogous realizations with cold atoms and optical trapping of particles.
Proceedings 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: In this paper, the authors proposed an external field-free photonic topological insulator with scatter-free edge transport, which is composed of an array of evanescently coupled helical waveguides arranged in a graphene-like honeycomb lattice.
