The isolated symmetry points of photonic graphene are unstable in three dimensions. Researchers have now proposed topologically robust points by using minimal surfaces and employing


symmetry-breaking ideas from quantum field theory. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS OPTIONS
