Direction-dependent parity-time phase transition and nonreciprocal amplification with dynamic gain-loss modulation

AY Song, Y Shi, Q Lin, S Fan - Physical Review A, 2019 - APS
We show that a dynamic gain-loss modulation in an optical structure can lead to a direction-
dependent parity-time (PT) phase transition. The phase transition can be made …
