Surfaces are at the frontier of every known solid. They provide versatile supports for functional nanostructures and mediate essential physicochemical processes. Intimately …
Topological phases of matter have attracted much attention over the years. Motivated by analogy with photonic lattices, here we examine the edge states of a one-dimensional trimer …

The fabrication of atomically precise structures with designer electronic properties is one of the emerging topics in condensed matter physics. The required level of structural control can …
Kinks, point‐like geometrical defects along dislocations, domain walls, and DNA, are stable and mobile, as solutions of a sine‐Gordon wave equation. While they are widely …
Topological mechanical metamaterials have been widely explored for their boundary states, which can be robustly isolated or transported in a controlled manner. However, such …
Many-body interactions give rise to the appearance of exotic phases in Hermitian physics. Despite their importance, many-body effects remain an open problem in non-Hermitian …

We propose a scheme to simulate the extended Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model by using the hybrid cavity magnonics system. We consider a hybrid cavity-magnon array with N sites …
Certain lattices with specific geometries have one or more spectral bands that are strictly flat, ie, the electron energy is independent of the momentum. This can occur robustly irrespective …
