More Information
Summary:Magnonics or magnon spintronics is an emerging field focusing on generating, detecting, and manipulating magnons. As charge‐neutral quasi‐particles, magnons are promising information carriers because of their low energy dissipation and long coherence length. In the past decade, topological phases in magnonics have attracted intensive attention due to their fundamental importance in condensed‐matter physics and potential applications of spintronic devices. In this review, we mainly focus on recent progress in topological magnonics, such as the Hall effect of magnons, magnon Chern insulators, topological magnon semimetals, etc. In addition, the evidence supporting topological phases in magnonics and candidate materials are also discussed and summarized. The aim of this review is to provide readers with a comprehensive and systematic understanding of the recent developments in topological magnonics. Topological magnonics has received a great deal of attention in the past decade owing to its fundamental significances and potential applications. This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent research progresses on topological phases of magnons, including Chern insulators, high‐order topological insulators, Z2 topological insulators, and topological semimetals of magnons. Additionally, candidate materials and artificial structures suitable for hosting topological magnons are summarized.
