Quantized charge pumping is a robust adiabatic phenomenon uniquely existing in topologically nontrivial systems. Such topological not only brings fundamental insights to the evolution of states under protection topology but also provides vital approach for study higher-dimensional phases.

In linear, lossless, time-invariant, and nonbiased acoustic systems, mode transitions are time reversible, consistent with Lorentz reciprocity implying a strict symmetry in space-time for sound manipulation. Here, we overcome this fundamental limitation by implementing spatiotemporally modulated metamaterials that support nonreciprocal steering. Our mechanism relies on the coupling between an ultrathin membrane external biasing electromagnetic fields, realizing programmable dynamic control...
