Abstract
The authors combine films of two-dimensional semiconductors, which exhibit excitonic spectral features, with SiO2/Si Fabry-Perot resonators in order to realize topological phase singularities in reflection. Around these singularities, the reflection spectra demonstrate rapid phase changes while the structure behaves as a perfect absorber.
