Abstract in brief

  • This study reports the first experimental observation of antichiral surface states in a 3D magnetic Weyl photonic crystal, which is a new type of topological state where surface waves propagate in the same direction on opposite edges.
  • The photonic crystal was constructed using gyromagnetic cylinders arranged in a honeycomb lattice, creating Weyl points that give rise to unique antichiral properties, such as tilted dispersion and a single Fermi arc connecting Weyl points.
  • These findings expand our understanding of topological states in three dimensions, showing that antichiral surface states can exist beyond 2D systems and offering new possibilities for controlling light in photonic devices.]
