Topological photonics and its topological edge state which can suppress scattering and immune defects set off a research boom. Recently, the quantum valley Hall effect (QVHE) with large valley Chern number and its multimode topological transmission have been realized, which greatly improve the mode density of the topological waveguide and its coupling efficiency with other photonic devices. The multifrequency QVHE and its topological transmission have been realized to increase the transmission capacity of topological waveguide, but multifrequency and multimode QVHE have not been realized simultaneously. In this Letter, the valley photonic crystal (VPC) is constructed with the Stampfli-triangle photonic crystal (STPC), and its degeneracies in the low-frequency and high-frequency bands are broken simultaneously to realize the multifrequency and multimode QVHE. The multifrequency and multimode topological transmission is realized through the U-shaped waveguide constructed with two VPCs with opposite valley Chern numbers. According to the bulk-edge correspondence principle, the Chern number is equal to the number of topological edge states or topological waveguide modes. Therefore, we can determine the valley Chern number of the VPC by the number of topological edge states or topological waveguide modes, further determine the realization of large valley Chern number. These results provide new ideas for high-efficiency and high-capacity optical transmission and communication devices and their integration, and broaden the application range of topological edge states.

The recent realizations of topological valley phase in photonic crystal, an analog of gapped valleytronic materials in electronic system, are limited to the valley Chern number of one. In this letter, we present a new type of valley phase that can ha
ve large valley Chern number of two or three. The valley phase transitions between the different valley Chern numbers (from one to three) are realized by changing the configuration of the unit cell. We demonstrate that these new topological phases can guide the wave propagation robustly along the domain wall of sharp bent. Our results are promising for the exploration of new topological phenomena in photonic systems.
Topological valley kink states have become a significant research frontier with considerable intriguing applications such as robust on-chip communications and topological lasers. Unlike guided modes with adjustable widths in most conventional wavegui
des, the valley kink states are usually highly confined around the domain walls and thus lack the mode width degree of freedom (DOF), posing a serious limitation to potential device applications. Here, by adding a photonic crystal (PhC) featuring a Dirac point between two valley PhCs with opposite valley-Chern numbers, we design and experimentally demonstrate topological valley-locked waveguides (TVLWs) with tunable mode widths. The photoinc TVLWs could find unique applications, such as high-energy-capacity topological channel intersections, valley-locked energy concentrators, and topological cavities with designable confinement, as verified numerically and experimentally. The TVLWs with width DOF could be beneficial to interface with the exsisting photonic waveguides and devices, and serve as a novel platform for practical use of topological lasing, field enhancement, on-chip communicaitons, and high-capacity energy transport.
We prove Anderson localization in a disordered photonic crystal waveguide by measuring the ensemble-averaged localization length which is controlled by the dispersion of the photonic crystal waveguide. In such structures, the localization length show
s a 10-fold variation between the fast- and the slow-light regime and, in the latter case, it becomes shorter than the sample length thus giving rise to strongly confined modes. The dispersive behavior of the localization length demonstrates the close relation between Anderson localization and the photon density of states in disordered photonic crystals, which opens a promising route to controlling and exploiting Anderson localization for efficient light confinement.
We report enhanced optomechanical coupling by embedding a nano-mechanical beam resonator within an optical race-track resonator. Precise control of the mechanical resonator is achieved by clamping the beam between two low-loss photonic crystal wavegu
ide couplers. The low insertion loss and the rigid mechanical support provided by the couplers yield both high mechanical and optical Q-factors for improved signal quality.
We demonstrate enhanced second harmonic generation in a gallium phosphide photonic crystal waveguide with a measured external conversion efficiency of 5$times10^{-7}$/W. Our results are promising for frequency conversion of on-chip integrated emitter
s having broad spectra or large inhomogeneous broadening, as well as for frequency conversion of ultrashort pulses.
