Valley based splitting of topologically protected helical waves in elastic plates

Date 12 Nov 2018
AbstractTopological protection offers unprecedented opportunity for wave manipulation and energy transport in various fields of physics, including elasticity, acoustics, quantum mechanics and electromagnetism. Several systems supporting distinct classes of topological waves, emulating the quantum Hall, spin Hall and valley Hall effects, have been observed, so far. Here, we propose and experimentally demonstrate the possibility of supporting multiple classes of topological modes in a single platform. We start from an elastic plate with patterned holes supporting a double Dirac cone and we create distinct topological interfaces lifting such a degeneracy by selectively breaking symmetries along the thickness and in-plane direction of the structure. We observe the propagation of a new class of interface modes, heterogeneous helical-valley waves, and demonstrate how these interfaces can serve as means to isolate two helical waves with distinct polarization. Our results open new avenues for investigating fundamental physical phenomena arising from the interaction of multiple topological waves, which may lead to novel applications involving wave splitting.
