Abstract

Optical field interacting with a topologically protected one-dimensional helical state is shown to support a one-dimensional plasmon-polariton that is characterized by a non-linear dispersion. In a two-dimensional Dirac magnet these electro-optical excitations are confined to domain walls, thus, offering a possibility to manipulate quantum optical states by altering magnetic domain configurations. An exact spectral equation for such a topological plasmon-polariton is derived.
