Antihelical edge magnons in patterned antiferromagnetic thin films

Helical edge states in topological insulators generate a counterpropagating spin current on the two parallel edges. We here propose antihelical edge states of magnons in patterned antiferromagnetic thin films, which host a copropagating spin current on the two parallel edges, where the two magnon mo...
