Observation of Robust Zero-Energy Extended States

Observation of Robust Zero-Energy Extended States

Localized topological midgap states are important for their robustness against disorder, but their natural localization limits their application. In this Letter the authors use an acoustic system to experimentally verify the existence of bulk states that belong to the band and, despite being extended, are robust against Hermitian and non-Hermitian …
