报告摘要:

Perhaps, the most fundamentalphenomenon in topological physics is the bulk-edge correspondence. Recentstudies reveal that many topological crystalline materials such as higher-ordertopological insulators, however, do not exhibit bulk-edge correspondence andare hence difficult to identify in experiments. Here, we demonstrate thatbulk-disclination correspondence, manifesting fractional charge atdisclinations depending on the bull band topology, is a novel phenomenon whichis useful in experimentally distinguish various topological crystalline phases.We create a photonic analog of topological crystalline insulators and measurethe photonic fractional charge via the classical analog of the Purcell effect.Our study provides the first example of bulk-disclination correspondence andunveils a new horizon for the study of topological physics.
