The topological Langmuir-cyclotron wave (TLCW) is a recently identified topological surface excitation in magnetized plasmas. We show that TLCW originates from the topological phase transition at the Langmuir wave-cyclotron wave resonance. By isofrequency surface analysis and two- and three-dimensional time-dependent simulations, we demonstrate that the TLCW can propagate robustly along complex phase transition interfaces in a unidirectional manner and without scattering. Because of these desirable features, the TLCW could be explored as an effective mechanism to drive current and flow in magnetized plasmas. As a result, the analysis also establishes a close connection between the newly instituted topological phase classification of plasmas and the classical Clemmow-Mullaly-Allis (CMA) diagram of plasma waves.
