“For simplicity, in Eq. ( 1) we assume that the waveguides are sufficiently distant from one another, such that it is only necessary to incorporate nearestneighbor coupling.”

The armchair edge has no edge states.
“This waveguide resides at the armchair edge, which has no edge states.”
“Due to the lack of edge states on the armchair edge, no light is confined to the edge and it diffracts into the bulk.”

The dielectric structure of the femtosecond-written waveguides can be described by a hypergaussian function.
“Its dielectric structure can be described as a hypergaussian function:”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-10, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-10 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
