Tracking Valley Topology with Synthetic Weyl Paths
Tracking Valley Topology with Synthetic Weyl Paths
Inspired by the newly emergent valleytronics, great interest has been attracted to the topological valley transport in classical metacrystals. The presence of nontrivial domain-wall states is interpreted with a concept of valley Chern number, which is well defined only in the limit of small band gap. Here, we propose a …
