Abstract

We will discuss possible applications of topological photonics to photonic integrated circuit technologies. We design nanophotonic elements based on topological edge states emerging at the exteriors of bulk structures and apply them to compact semiconductor lasers and waveguides. Such topological photonic devices are known to be immune to fabrication imperfections and therefore are suitable for building robust optical circuitry. We also address the idea of topological high-power lasers that take advantage of topological edge states for robust single mode lasing.
