Topology-controlled photonic cavity based on the near-conservation of the valley degree of freedom

We demonstrate a novel path to localizing topologically nontrivial photonic edge modes along their propagation direction. Our approach is based on the near-conservation of the photonic valley degree of freedom associated with valley-polarized edge states. When the edge state is reflected from a judi...
