Manipulating one-way space wave and its refraction by time-reversal and parity symmetry breaking
One-way transmission and negative refraction are the exotic wave properties founded in photonic crystals which attract a great attention due to their promising applications in photonic devices. How to integrate such two phenomena in one material or device is interesting and valuable. In this work, we theoretically and experimentally demonstrate that one-way electromagnetic space wave can be rea...
متن کاملParity and time-reversal symmetry breaking, singular solutions, and Fresnel surfaces.
The method of exterior di®erential systems is applied to the problem of ̄nding propagating singular solutions to Maxwell s equations Fresnel ray and wave surfaces are computed for systems that are not restricted to the topology imposed by the symmetries of the Lorentz transformations. The methods distinguish the measurable polarization phase di®erences between global behavior in optically active...
متن کاملSingle-mode laser by parity-time symmetry breaking.
Effective manipulation of cavity resonant modes is crucial for emission control in laser physics and applications. Using the concept of parity-time symmetry to exploit the interplay between gain and loss (i.e., light amplification and absorption), we demonstrate a parity-time symmetry-breaking laser with resonant modes that can be controlled at will. In contrast to conventional ring cavity lase...
متن کاملSuperfluidity and space-time translation symmetry breaking.
I present a simple model that exhibits a temporal analogue of superconducting crystalline (Larkin-Ovchinnikov-Ferrell-Fulde) ordering, with a time-dependent order parameter. I sketch designs for minimally dissipative ac circuits, all based on time translation symmetry (τ) invariant dynamics, exploiting weak links (Josephson effects). These systems violate τ spontaneously. I also discuss effecti...
متن کاملTime-reversal symmetry breaking by a (d+id) density-wave state in underdoped cuprate superconductors.
It was proposed that the id(x(2)-y(2)) density-wave state (DDW) may be responsible for the pseudogap behavior in the underdoped cuprates. Here we show that the admixture of a small d(xy) component to the DDW state breaks the symmetry between the counterpropagating orbital currents of the DDW state and, thus, violates the macroscopic time-reversal symmetry. This symmetry breaking results in a no...
