Abstract
Topological photonic crystals (PCs) provide an effective method for controlling how light propagates and concentrates through their topological states. However, it remains unclear whether topological states can be obtained by combining two different two-dimensional (2D) PCs with topological non-trivial states. In this Letter, two types of 2D Penrose-square (P-S) PCs are proposed. These PCs can generate topological edge states (TESs) and topological corner states (TCSs) within the low-frequency part of the bandgap. Moreover, by combining these two non-trivial PCs, a total of two groups of TESs and four groups of TCSs can be generated in both the high-frequency and low-frequency parts of the common bandgap. To the best of our knowledge, the two proposed P-S PCs offer a new platform for investigating topological photonics and related devices, providing novel approaches and perspectives for generating topological states in 2D PCs.
