Title: Topological bandgaps for light and sound

Speaker: Baile Zhang

Time: Nov. 17th (Fri.), 10:00

Location: Room 215

  

Abstract:

There has been substantial research interest in pursuing topological photonic/acoustic bandgaps, in order to achieve the so-called “photonic/acoustic topological insulators”. In this talk, I will first outline some fundamental notations in topological physics, and then  introduce our recent progresses in topological photonics and topological acoustics.
