Photonic zero mode in a non-Hermitian photonic lattice

Zero-energy states such as Majorana fermions could improve quantum computation, but they are not stable under strong coupling conditions. Here, Pan et al. demonstrate a photonic implementation of a topologically protected, non-Hermitian-enhanced, thus stable, zero mode in a non-Hermitian lattice.
