摘要: 拓扑绝缘体起源于量子波动系统, 因其单向传输、能量无耗散等新奇物理性质, 近年逐渐被拓展到电磁波、声波、弹性波等经典波动领域, 为经典波的调控提供了新思路. 本文将系统介绍拓扑绝缘体理论及其在弹性波领域的相关研究进展. 首先以一维、二维离散点阵系统为例, 阐释拓扑物理研究中的基本数学、物理概念, 如狄拉克锥、能带翻转、贝里曲率、拓扑数等. 随后, 依次讨论弹性系统谷霍尔绝缘体、陈绝缘体、自旋霍尔绝缘体的设计思想及目前研究进展, 并讨论了近年来逐渐受关注的高阶拓扑现象. 最后, 讨论了静力学中拓扑孤立子、拓扑零能模式现象.Abstract: Topological insulators, originated in quantum systems, are recently generalized to electromagnetic, acoustic, and elastic wave fields due to interesting wave controlling provides, such as unidirectional and dissipationless energy transportation. This new kind of materials provide unprecedented possibilities for engineering wave flows. This paper will introduce the basic theory of topological insulators and summarize the research progress of topological insulators in elastic fields. Based on one-dimensional and two-dimensional discrete models, preliminary concepts of topological insulators, such as Dirac cone, band inversion, Berry curvatures, topological invariants, are introduced. The design and progress of valley Hall insulators, Chern insulators as well as spin Hall insulators are introduced afterward, followed by discussions on high-order topological insulators. The last part of this paper covers topological phenomena in static mechanics, including topological solitons and toplogical zero energy modes.
