Symmetry-controlled edge states in the type-II phase of Dirac photonic lattices

The electrons in 2D materials like graphene are described by the relativistic Dirac equation. Here the authors present a lattice of evanescently coupled waveguides that emulates a wide range of Dirac excitations and study the type-II edge states that emerge in this photonic system.
