Wavefront dislocations reveal the topology of quasi-1D photonic insulators
Topological properties are defined from singularities of the wave functions delocalised in the bulk of the material, but most experimental manifestations remain indirect. Here, the authors observe a wavefront dislocation as a direct evidence of the phase singularity of the delocalised wave functions...

| Sumario: | Topological properties are defined from singularities of the wave functions delocalised in the bulk of the material, but most experimental manifestations remain indirect. Here, the authors observe a wavefront dislocation as a direct evidence of the phase singularity of the delocalised wave functions in 1D microwave photonic insulators. |
