Circuit implementation of a four-dimensional topological insulator
Higher-dimensional topological phases are predicted but cannot be realised in real materials as they are limited to three or fewer dimensions. Here, Wang et al. realise a four-dimensional topological insulator associated with a nonzero second Chern number using electric circuits.
