Experimental observation of anomalous topological edge modes in a slowly driven photonic lattice

Experimental observation of anomalous topological edge modes in a slowly driven photonic lattice

Abstract Topological quantum matter can be realized by subjecting engineered systems to time-periodic modulations. In analogy with static systems, periodically driven quantum matter can be topologically classified by topological invariants, whose non-zero value guarantees the presence of robust edge modes. In the high-frequency limit of the drive, topology is described …
