Chiral edge plasmons in quantum anomalous Hall insulators

Chiral edge plasmons in quantum anomalous Hall insulators

We find that the Berry curvature splits the edge plasmons propagating along the opposite directions in quantum anomalous Hall insulators even with vanishing Chern number. When the bulk is insulating, only one unidirectional edge plasmon mode survives whose direction can be changed by external fields. The unidirectional edge plasmon in …
