cff-version: 1.2.0 abstract: "The dataset comprises the figures for the paper "Direct quantification of topological protection in symmetry-protected photonic edge states at telecom wavelengths" by Sonakshi Arora, et. al.. The research objective is the quantification of robustness in topologically non-trivial photonic crystals by means of a phase resolving near field microscope. We map the electric fields in such a crystal and look at reflection and transmissions coefficients through two crystal designs: a straight domain wall and a trapezoidal shaped defect." authors: - family-names: Arora given-names: Sonakshi orcid: "https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7333-6953" title: "Direct quantification of topological protection in symmetry-protected photonic edge states at telecom wavelengths" keywords: version: 1 identifiers: - type: doi value: 10.4121/12764972.v1 license: CC0 date-released: 2021-12-30
