Topological sensing with photonic arrays of resonant circular waveguides

We propose a photonic array of resonant circular dielectric waveguides with subwavelength grating that can be designed as a robust and sensitive topological chemical sensor. The device can detect trace amounts of a given chemical species through photonic edge modes that are impervious to most source...
