Abstract:Exceptional points, as degenerate points of non-Hermitian parity-time symmetric systems, have many unique physical properties. Due to its flexible control of electromagnetic waves, a metasurface is frequently used in the field of nanophotonics. In this work, we developed a parity-time symmetric metasurface and implemented the 2π topological phase surrounding an exceptional point. Compared with Pancharatnam-Berry phase, the topological phase around an exceptional point can achieve independent regulation of seve… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
