Disorder-induced topological phase transition in a one-dimensional mechanical system
We numerically investigate the topological phase transition induced purely by disorder in a spring-mass chain. We employ two types of disorders—chiral and random types—to explore the interplay between topology and disorder. By tracking the evolution of real-space topological invariants, we obtain th...
