Interaction of edge exciton polaritons with engineered defects in the hyperbolic material Bi2Se3

Hyperbolic materials have unique optical properties such as negative refraction and highly directional polaritons, relevant in super-resolution imaging. Here, the topological insulator Bi2Se3 is shown to host hyperbolic edge-confined exciton polaritons that can be steered via engineered edge defects...
