We introduce the concept of controlling the nonlinear response of the metamaterial by altering its internal structure. We experimentally demonstrate tuning of the nonlinear response of two coupled split-ring resonators by changing their mutual position. This effect is achieved through modification of the structure of the coupled resonant modes, and their interaction with the incident field. By offsetting the resonators we control the maximum currents through the nonlinear driving elements, which affects the nonlinear response of the system.

A system of two coupled semiconductor-based resonators is studied when lasing around an exceptional point. We show that the presence of nonlinear saturation effects can have important ramifications on the transition behavior of this system. In sharp contrast with linear PT-symmetric configurations, nonlinear processes are capable of reversing the order in which the symmetry breaking occurs. Yet, even in the nonlinear regime, the resulting non-Hermitian states still retain the structural form of the corresponding linear eigenvectors expected above and below the phase transition point. The conclusions of our analysis are in agreement with experimental data.
A convenient for practical use new theoretical approach describing a nonlinear frequency response of the multi-resonant nonlinear ring cavities (RC) to an intense monochromatic wave action is developed. The approach closely relates the many-valuednesses of the RC frequency response and the dispersion relation of a waveguide, from which the cavity is produced. Arising of the multistability regime in the nonlinear RC is treated. The threshold and the dynamic range of the bistability and tristability regimes for an optical ring cavity with the Kerr nonlinearity are derived and discussed.
We first present a quasinormal mode (QNM) theory for coupled loss-gain resonators working near an exceptional point. Assuming linear media, which can be fully quantified using the complex pole properties of the QNMs, we show how the QNMs yield a quantitatively good model to a full dipole spontaneous emission response in Maxwells equations at various spatial positions and frequencies (linear response). We also develop a highly accurate and intuitive QNM coupled-mode theory, which can be used to rigorously model such systems using only the QNMs of the bare resonators, where the hybrid QNMs of the complete system are automatically obtained. Near a lossy exceptional point, we analytically show how the QNMs yield a Lorentzian-like and a Lorentzian-squared-like response for the spontaneous emission lineshape, consistent with other works. However, using rigorous analytical and numerical solutions for microdisk resonators, we demonstrate that the general lineshapes are far richer than what has been previously predicted. Indeed, the classical picture of spontaneous emission can take on a wide range of positive and negative Purcell factors from the hybrid modes of the coupled loss-gain system. These negative Purcell factors are unphysical and signal a clear breakdown of the classical dipole picture of spontaneous emission in such media, though the negative local density of states is correct. We also show the rich spectral features of the Green function propagators, which can be used to model various physical observables. Second, we present a QNM approach to model index modulated ring resonators working near an exceptional point and show unusual chiral power flow from linearly polarized emitters, in agreement with recent experiments, which is quantitatively explained without invoking the interpretation of a missing dimension (the Jordan vector) and a decoupling from the cavity eigenmodes.
To enhance transmission efficiency of Pancharatnam-Berry (PB) phase metasurfaces, multilayer split-ring resonators were proposed to develop encoding sequences. As per the generalized Snell law, the deflection angle of the PB phase encoding metasurfaces depends on the metasurface period size. Therefore, it is impossible to design an infinitesimal metasurface unit.Consequently, the continuous transmission scattering angle cannot be obtained. In digital signal processing, this study introduces the Fourier convolution principle on encoding metasurface sequences to freely control the transmitted scattering angles. Both addition and subtraction operations between two different encoding sequences were then performed to achieve the continuous variation of the scattering angle. Furthermore, we established that the Fourier convolution principle can be applied to the checkerboard coded metasurfaces.
We investigate nonlinear dispersive mode coupling between the flexural in- and out-of-plane modes of two doubly clamped, nanomechanical silicon nitride string resonators. As the amplitude of one mode transitions from the linear response regime into the nonlinear regime, we find a frequency shift of two other modes. The resonators are strongly elastically coupled via a shared clamping point and can be tuned in and out of resonance dielectrically, giving rise to multimode avoided crossings. When the modes start hybridizing, their polarization changes. This affects the nonlinear dispersive coupling in a non-trivial way. We propose a theoretical model to describe the dependence of the dispersive coupling on the mode hybridization.
