Real-space imaging of a topologically protected edge state with ultracold atoms in an amplitude-chirped optical lattice
Topological states of matter cannot be distinguished on the basis of local measurements in the bulk of the material. Here the authors report on the observation of an edge state between two topological distinct phases of an ultracold atomic one-dimensional system using optical microscopy.
