摘要:

高阶拓扑绝缘体(HOTI)代表了物质的一个新阶段,其特性超越了传统的体-边界对应,引起了广泛的关注。使用平方根运算,有人建议,一个平方根HOTI可能会出现在一个混合蜂窝-kagome晶格。在这里,我们报告的第一个实验实现的平方根HOTI拓扑LC电路。我们从理论上和实验上证明了平方根HOTI从其母体中继承了波函数的特征,角态被钉扎到非零能量。体极化充分表征了其拓扑特征。为了直接测量有限能量角模,我们在每个节点上引入额外的接地电感。我们的研究结果实验证实了新兴的平方根HOTI和铺平了道路,实现奇异的拓扑相位,是具有挑战性的观察凝聚态物理。

英文摘要:

Higher-order topological insulator (HOTI) represents a new phase of matter, the characterization of which goes beyond the conventional bulk-boundary correspondence and is attracting significant attention by the broad community. Using a square-root operation, it has been suggested that a square-root HOTI may emerge in a hybrid honeycomb-kagome lattice. Here, we report the first experimental realization of the square-root HOTI in topological LC circuits. We show theoretically and experimentally that the square-root HOTI inherits the feature of wave function from its parent, with corner states pinned to non-zero energies. The topological feature is fully characterized by the bulk polarization. To directly measure the finite-energy corner modes, we introduce extra grounded inductors to each node. Our results experimentally substantiate the emerging square-root HOTI and pave the way to realizing exotic topological phases that are challenging to observe in condensed matter physics.
