摘要

Abstract

Three-dimensional (3D) artificial metacrystals host rich topological phases

such as Weyl points

nodal rings

and 3D photonic topological insulators. These topological states enable a wide range of applications

including 3D robust waveguides

one-way fiber

and negative refraction of the surface wave. However

these carefully designed metacrystals are usually very complex

hindering their extension to nanoscale photonic systems. Here

we theoretically proposed and experimentally realized an ideal nodal ring in the visible region using a simple 1D photonic crystal. The π-Berry phase around the ring is manifested by a 2π reflection phase's winding and the resultant drumhead surface states. By breaking the inversion symmetry

the nodal ring can be gapped and the π-Berry phase would diffuse into a toroidal-shaped Berry flux

resulting in photonic ridge states (the 3D extension of quantum valley Hall states). Our results provide a simple and feasible platform for exploring 3D topological physics and its potential applications in nanophotonics.
