Quartic-root higher-order topological insulators on decorated three-dimensional sonic crystals

The square-root operation provides a new scheme to create topological phases with unconventional spectrum properties. With the square-root operation, the square-root topological insulators can support paired topological boundary states in two bulk gaps, and the mechanism of square-root has been gene...
