Topological matter physics

one-way current-carrying states at the boundary of a quantum Hall system that persist in the presence of disorder.

In topological matter physics, chiral edge state refers to one-way current-carrying states at the boundary of a quantum Hall system that persist in the presence of disorder. This meaning comes from Halperin (1982) in Physical Review B.[1]
