Bulk–disclination correspondence in topological crystalline insulators

Nature, Published online: 20 January 2021; doi:10.1038/s41586-020-03125-3

It is experimentally shown that topological states exist at crystallographic defects in the bulk and that disclination defects trap fractional charges characteristic of topological crystalline insulators.
