摘要：The celebrated?Dirac?equation is not only the?foundation of quantum field theory, but also the parent model of many later advances in?physics. One of thekey notion derived from?Dirac?equation is the band topology for fermions in various condensed matters.?Recently this notion is extended to bosonic systems, such as in?photonics. I will briefly introduce the background, fundamental challenges and recent advances in the?search of photonic?topological?materials.?Band degeneracy and topology enriched by space symmetry in all dielectric photonic crystals is emphasized.??Synergy with linear and quantum optics is?also introduced.
