Controlling topological phases of light allows the observation of abundant topological phenomena and the development of robust photonic devices. The prospect of more sophisticated control with topological photonic devices for practical implementations requires high-level programmability. Here we demonstrate a fully programmable topological photonic chip with large-scale integration of silicon photonic nanocircuits and microresonators. Photonic artificial atoms and their interactions in our compound system can be individually addressed and controlled, allowing the arbitrary adjustment of structural parameters and geometrical configurations for the observation of dynamic topological phase transitions and diverse photonic topological insulators. Individual programming of artificial atoms on the generic chip enables the comprehensive statistical characterization of topological robustness against relatively weak disorders, and counterintuitive topological Anderson phase transitions induced by strong disorders. This generic topological photonic chip can be rapidly reprogrammed to implement multifunctionalities, providing a flexible and versatile platform for applications across fundamental science and topological technologies.

一种可编程拓扑光子芯片



控制光的拓扑相位可以观察丰富的拓扑现象并开发强大的光子器件。拓扑光子器件的更复杂控制的实际实现需要高水平的可编程性。在这里,我们展示了一种完全可编程的拓扑光子芯片,具有大规模集成的硅光子纳米电路和微谐振器。光子人造原子及其在我们的复合系统中的相互作用可以单独寻址和控制,允许任意调整结构参数和几何配置,以观察动态拓扑相变和不同的光子拓扑绝缘体。通用芯片上人工原子的单独编程能够对相对较弱的无序以及由强无序引起的违反直觉的拓扑安德森相变进行拓扑鲁棒性的全面统计表征。这种通用拓扑光子芯片可以快速重新编程以实现多功能性,为基础科学和拓扑技术的应用提供灵活且多功能的平台。
