A higher-order topological insulator (HOTI) in two dimensions is an insulator without metallic edge states but with robust zero-dimensional topological boundary modes localized at its corners. Yet, these corner modes do not carry a clear…
Higher-order topological phases (HOTPs) possess localized and symmetry-protected eigenmodes at corners and along hinges in two and three dimensional lattices. The numbers of these topological boundary modes will undergo quantized changes at…

The presence of random disorder in a metallic system accounts for the localization of extended states in general. On the contrary, the presence of disorder can induce topological phases hosting metallic boundary states out of a…

This item from the News & Views category, to be published in Light: Science & Applications, aims to provide a summary of theoretical and experimental results recently published in Ref. [24], which demonstrate the creation of corner modes in…
The properties of topological systems are inherently tied to their dimensionality. Higher-dimensional physical systems exhibit topological properties not shared by their lower dimensional counterparts and, in general, offer richer physics.…
