Breaking Lorentz reciprocity was believed to be a prerequisite for nonreciprocal transmissions of light fields, so the possibility of nonreciprocity by linear optical systems was mostly ignored. We put forward a structure of three mutually coupled microcavities or optical fiber rings to realize optical nonreciprocity. Although its couplings with the fields from two different input ports are constantly equal, such system transmits them nonreciprocally either under the saturation of an optical gain in one of the cavities or with the asymmetric couplings of the circulating fields in different cavities. The structure made up of optical fiber rings can perform nonreciprocal transmissions as a time-independent linear system without breaking Lorentz reciprocity. Optical isolation for inputs simultaneously from two different ports and even approximate optical isolator operations are implementable with the structure.

A coherently driven Kerr optical cavity is able to convert a continuous-wave laser to a sequence of ultrashort soliton pulses, enabling the generation of broadband and mode-locked frequency combs. Kerr cavity solitons are balanced through an energy e
xchange with the driving pump field. Improving the energy conversion efficiency from the pump to the soliton is of great significance for practical applications, but remains an outstanding challenge due to a limited temporal overlap between the soliton and the pump. Here, we report the discovery of temporal Kerr solitons in mutually coupled cavities instead of a traditional single cavity. We propose a strategy for breaking the limitation of pump-to-soliton energy conversion, and connect the underlying mechanism to impedance matching in radiofrequency electronic circuits. With macro optical fiber ring cavities which share the same physical model as miniature optical microresonators, we demonstrate nearly one-order improvement of the efficiency. The results pave the way towards super-efficient soliton microcombs based on optical microresonators with ultra-high quality factors.
We probe the physical mechanism behind the known phenomenon of power synchronization of two diode lasers that are mutually coupled via their delayed optical fields. In a diode laser, the amplitude and the phase of the optical field are coupled by the
so-called linewidth enhancement factor, $alpha$. In this work, we explore the role of optical phases of the electric fields in amplitude (and hence power) synchronization through $alpha$ in such mutually delay-coupled diode laser systems. Our numerical results show that the synchronization of optical phases drives the powers of lasers to synchronized death regimes. We also find that as $alpha$ varies for different diode lasers, the system goes through a sequence of in-phase amplitude-death states. Within the windows between successive amplitude-death regions, the cross-correlation between the field amplitudes exhibits a universal power-law behaviour with respect to $alpha$.
This paper aims at providing a global perspective on electromagnetic nonreciprocity and clarifying confusions that arose in the recent developments of the field. It provides a general definition of nonreciprocity and classifies nonreciprocal systems
according to their linear time-invariant (LTI), linear time-variant (LTV) or nonlinear nonreciprocal natures. The theory of nonlinear systems is established on the foundation of the concepts of time reversal, time-reversal symmetry, time-reversal symmetry breaking and related Onsager- Casimir relations. Special attention is given to LTI systems, as the most common nonreciprocal systems, for which a generalized form of the Lorentz reciprocity theorem is derived. The delicate issue of loss in nonreciprocal systems is demystified and the so-called thermodynamics paradox is resolved from energy conservation considerations. The fundamental characteristics and applications of LTI, LTV and nonlinear nonreciprocal systems are overviewed with the help of pedagogical examples. Finally, asymmetric structures with fallacious nonreciprocal appearances are debunked.
This paper is the second part of a two-part paper on emph{Electromagnetic (EM) Nonreciprocity (NR)}. Part~I has defined NR, pointed out that linear NR is a stronger form of NR than nonlinear (NL) NR, explained EM Time-Reversal (TR) Symmetry (TRS) Bre
aking (TRS-B), described linear Time-Invariant (TI) NR media, generalized the Lorentz reciprocity theorem for NR, and provided a physical interpretation of the resulting Onsager-Casimir relations~cite{Caloz_AWPL_NR_I_2018}. This part first explains the TR specificity of lossy and open systems. Next, it proposes an extended version of the S-parameters for emph{all NR} systems. Then, it presents the fundamentals of linear-TI (LTI) NR, linear Time-Variant (LTV) Space-Time (ST) modulated NR and NL NR systems. Finally, it addresses confusions between with systems.
In this work we derive the general conditions for obtaining nonreciprocity in multi-mode parametrically-coupled systems. The results can be applied to a broad variety of optical, microwave, and hybrid systems including recent electro- and opto-mechan
ical devices. In deriving these results, we use a graph-based methodology to derive the scattering matrix. This approach naturally expresses the terms in the scattering coefficients as separate graphs corresponding to distinct coupling paths between modes such that it is evident that nonreciprocity arises as a consequence of multi-path interference and dissipation in key ancillary modes. These concepts facilitate the construction of new devices in which several other characteristics might also be simultaneously optimized. As an example, we synthesize a novel three-mode unilateral amplifier design by use of graphs. Finally, we analyze the isolation generated in a common parametric multi-mode system, the DC-SQUID.
