Higher-order Dirac semimetal in a photonic crystal by Wang, Zihao, Liu, Dongjue, Teo, Hau Tian, Wang, Qiang, Xue, Haoran, Zhang, Baile

“…Numerical results on the band structure show that the designed three-dimensional photonic crystal is able to host two fourfold Dirac points, which are connected in the momentum-space projections via higher-order hinge states localized at the hinge. The higher-order topology can be characterized by the topological invariant χ(6) at different values of k_z . …”
