Tunable THz generalized Weyl points

Weyl points, as linearly double degenerated point of band structures, have been extensively researched in electronic and classical wave systems. However, Weyl points' realization is always accompanied with delicate "lattice structures". In this work, frequency-tunable terahertz (THz) generalized Weyl points inside the parameter space have been investigated and displayed by a specially designed photonic crystal with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) immersed in 4-cyano'-pentylbipenyl (5CB) liquid crystals (LCs). The reflective phase vortices as a signature of the generalized Weyl points are observed through our numerically simulations. Besides, interface states between photonic crystals and any reflective substrates are fulfilled too. Meanwhile, we could also change the orientation of LC molecule by the external magnetic field so as to tune the frequency of the first two bands' Weyl point from 0.27698THz to 0.30013THz. This band lies in the short-range wireless communication. Thus, our proposal may be beneficial to the investigation and application of Weyl points' properties and strongly localized states.
