Chiral symmetry breaking and topological charge of zigzag graphene nanoribbons

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics
Interacting quasi-one-dimensional zigzag graphene nanoribbons display gapped edge excitations. Although the self-consistent Hartree–Fock fields break chiral symmetry, our work demonstrates that zigzag graphene nanoribbons maintain their status as short ...

Effectively Identifying the Topological Charge and Polarization Order of Arbitrary Singular Light Beams Based on Orthogonal Polarization Separating

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2019
Singular beams with spatially variant field distributions have various fantastic applications. However, one of the significant challenges that hinder the wide application of singular beams is how to effectively identify the topological charge and the ...

Nonvolatile current-induced topological charge imbalance of magnetic textures

open access: yesCommunications Physics
The topological charge of magnetic solitons gives rise to characteristic Hall-type effects, which allows to recognize the nontrivial topology of the spin textures, such as skyrmions or antiskyrmions.

A unified topological classification of circular orbits for charged particles in black hole spacetimes

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields
The study of circular orbits offers profound insights into the structure of spacetime around black holes. While the topological properties of these orbits are well-established for neutral particles, the influence of electric charge–particularly for ...

Observation of a Higher‐Order End Topological Insulator in a Real Projective Lattice

open access: yesAdvanced Science
The modern theory of quantized polarization has recently extended from 1D dipole moment to multipole moment, leading to the development from conventional topological insulators (TIs) to higher‐order TIs, i.e., from the bulk polarization as primary ...

Two dimensional CP^2 Model with \theta-term and Topological Charge Distributions

open access: yes, 1999
Topological charge distributions in 2 dimensional CP^2 model with theta-term is calculated. In strong coupling regions, topological charge distribution is approximately given by Gaussian form as a function of topological charge and this behavior leads to

Measurement of Orbital Angular Momentum by Self-Interference Using a Plasmonic Metasurface

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2016
We present a flexible method for measuring the orbital angular momentum (OAM) of a linearly polarized beam by means of a metasurface composed of a V-shaped gold plasmonic antenna.

Topological origin of quantized transport in non-Hermitian Floquet chains

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2020
We show that non-Hermiticity enables topological phases with unidirectional transport in one-dimensional Floquet chains. The topological signatures of these phases are noncontractible loops in the spectrum of the Floquet propagator that are separated by ...

High-Capacity Near-Infrared Optical Vortex Sorting and Detection by Nonlinear Dammann Vortex Grating

open access: yesPhotonics
This paper demonstrates the sorting and detection of near-infrared vortex light using a nonlinear Dammann vortex grating. By incorporating a forked structure into the nonlinear Dammann grating, the resulting nonlinear Dammann vortex grating is capable of

Hall conductivity as bulk signature of topological transitions in superconductors

open access: yes, 2013
Topological superconductors may undergo transitions between phases with different topological numbers which, like the case of topological insulators, are related to the presence of gapless (Majorana) edge states.
