Electromagnetic wave propagation in three-dimensional space typically suffers omnidirectional scattering when encountering obstacles. In this study, we employed Chern vectors to construct a topological heterostructure, where large-volume…

It was at the dawn of the historical developments of quantum mechanics when Schr\"odinger, Kennard and Darwin proposed an interesting type of Gaussian wave packets, which do not spread out while evolving in time. Originally, these wave…
