Abstract

Recently, researchers have devoted their intense efforts to investigating Weyl physics in synthetic space. In this Letter, we study the intriguing topological rotated Weyl physics in a three-dimensional parameter space, which consists of two extra structural parameters and the wave vector of a simple one-dimensional sonic crystal. In our ultrasonic experiments, we observe that the topological interface states propagate along the interface formed by two sonic crystals of distinct chirality caused by the rotated Weyl points. We detect the rotated synthetic Weyl points and measure the singularities of the reflection phase, which results in the robustness of the interface states. At the same time, it also shows the advantages of synthetic dimensions in exploring high-dimensional physics problems in low-dimensional systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
