Zhi-Kang's Perspective paper invited by Europhys. Lett. is going to appear. Congratulations!
25 Mar 2022 Category : News Views (260) Category : NewsWe were invited by the EIC of Europhys. Lett. for a Perspective paper on higher-order topological insulators. We wrote on the relation between Dirac cones and higher-order topological phases in quasi-continuous media (i.e., photonic and acoustic crystals). The paper entitled with "Dirac cones and ...

Our new paper, Topological Wannier cycles induced by sub-unit-cell artificial gauge flux in a sonic crystal, is published online at Nature Materials! Congratulations to Zhi-Kang Lin and other collaborators!
18 Mar 2022 Category : News Views (1402) Category : NewsAbstract Gauge fields play a major role in understanding quantum effects. For example, gauge flux insertion into single unit cells is crucial towards detecting quantum phases and controlling quantum dynamics and classical waves. However, the potential of gauge fields in topological materia...

We experimentally observe non-Abelian topological semimetals and their phase transitions using acoustic analogs! See our new paper published on Nature Physics. Congratulations to Bin Jiang!
20 Sep 2021 Category : News Views (946) Category : NewsAbstract Topological phases of matter connect mathematical principles to real materials, and may shape future electronic and quantum technologies. So far, this discipline has mostly focused on single-gap topology described by topological invariants such as Chern numbers. Here, based on a t...

We report the first experimental discovery of bulk-disclination correspondence, a fundamental topological phenomenon differing from the long-standing bulk-edge correspondence. Click on the URL to read this paper on Nature! Congratulations to Yang Liu and other collaborators!
21 Jan 2021 Category : News Views (1403) Category : NewsAbstract Most natural and artificial materials have crystalline structures from which abundant topological phases emerge1,2,3,4,5,6. However, the bulk–edge correspondence—which has been widely used in experiments to determine the band topology from edge properties—is inadequate in discerni...
