In PT-symmetric gratings, asymmetric diffraction can be generated by modulating the ratio between imaginary and real refractive indices. In this paper, a rigorous coupled-wave analysis (RCWA) has been developed to analyze the diffraction properties of acoustic PT-symmetric gratings with two kinds of modulating approaches, including modulating the effective modulus and the effective density. Asymmetric diffraction with both Bragg incident angles and perpendicular incident angles is discussed by using the RCWA method. Results show that the modulation ratio for the diffraction vanishing point changes with the modulation amplitude differently for two kinds of modulating approaches. Moreover, the sound energy will be weaken or be enhanced at Bragg incident angles depending on the sign of incident angles and the modulation ratio.

Passive parity-time-symmetric medium provides a feasible scheme to investigate non-Hermitian systems experimentally. Here, we design a passive PT-symmetric acoustic grating with a period equal to exact PT-symmetric medium. This treatment enhances the
diffraction ability of a passive PT-symmetric grating with more compact modulation. Above all, it eliminates the first-order disturbance of previous design in diffraction grating. Additional cavities and small leaked holes on top plate in a 2D waveguide are used to construct a parity-time-symmetric potential. The combining between additional cavities and leaked holes makes it possible to modulate the real and imaginary parts of refractive index simultaneously. When the real and imaginary parts of refractive index are balanced in modulation, asymmetric diffraction can be observed between a pair of oblique incident waves. This demonstration provides a feasible way to construct passive parity-time-symmetric acoustic medium. It opens new possibilities for further investigation of acoustic wave control in non-Hermitian systems.
For some cavity-quantum-electrodynamics systems, such as a single electron spin coupled to a passive cavity, it is challenging to reach the strong-coupling regime. In such a weak-coupling regime, the conventional dispersive readout technique cannot b
e used to resolve the quantum states of the spin. Here we propose an improved dispersive readout method to measure the quantum states of a weakly coupled qubit by harnessing either one or two auxiliary cavities linearly coupled to the passive cavity containing the qubit. With appropriate parameters in both cases, the system excluding the qubit can exhibit a parity-time-symmetric phase transition at the exceptional point (EP). Because the EP can amplify the perturbation induced by the qubit and the parity-time symmetry can narrow the linewidths of the peaks in the transmission spectrum of the passive cavity, we can measure the quantum states of the weakly coupled qubit via this transmission spectrum. Owing to the weak coupling between the qubit and the passive cavity, the backaction due to the measurement of the qubit can also be reduced in comparison with the conventional dispersive readout technique in the strong-coupling regime.
This work presents a theoretical investigation of an active diffraction grating of the Parity-Time (PT) symmetric architecture. The analytical study of the free-space mode propagation in the grating structure indicates the unique bifurcation property
due to the PT-symmetry modulation. It is shown that both the gain/loss contrast and the lattice constant parameters are critical factors to modulate the photonic system in between the PT-symmetry to the symmetry-broken phases. Furthermore, numerical simulations via the Rigorous Coupled-Wave Analysis (RCWA) method discover the existence of a unique Spectral Singularity (SS) phenomenon in this PT grating structure which is corresponding to a non-trivial single-mode and near-zero bandwidth photonic resonant emission. Also, the guiding procedure for fulfilling SS modes is found to be related to the unique formation of the scattering matrix applied in the PT-symmetric diffraction gratings. This theoretical work takes a fresh look into the active PT-symmetric diffraction gratings focusing on the discovery of new free-space emission modes rather than the commonly studied unidirectional properties, which could contribute to the development of novel low-threshold and super-coherent laser devices.
Classical open systems with balanced gain and loss, i.e. parity-time ($mathcal{PT}$) symmetric systems, have attracted tremendous attention over the past decade. Their exotic properties arise from exceptional point (EP) degeneracies of non-Hermitian
Hamiltonians that govern their dynamics. In recent years, increasingly sophisticated models of $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric systems with time-periodic (Floquet) driving, time-periodic gain and loss, and time-delayed coupling have been investigated, and such systems have been realized across numerous platforms comprising optics, acoustics, mechanical oscillators, optomechanics, and electrical circuits. Here, we introduce a $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric (balanced gain and loss) system with memory, and investigate its dynamics analytically and numerically. Our model consists of two coupled $LC$ oscillators with positive and negative resistance, respectively. We introduce memory by replacing either the resistor with a memristor, or the coupling inductor with a meminductor, and investigate the circuit energy dynamics as characterized by $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric or $mathcal{PT}$-symmetry broken phases. Due to the resulting nonlinearity, we find that energy dynamics depend on the sign and strength of initial voltages and currents, as well as the distribution of initial circuit energy across its different components. Surprisingly, at strong inputs, the system exhibits self-organized Floquet dynamics, including $mathcal{PT}$-symmetry broken phase at vanishingly small dissipation strength. Our results indicate that $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric systems with memory show a rich landscape.
The anomalous features in diffraction patterns first observed by Wood over a century ago have been the subject of many investigations, both experimental and theoretical. The sharp, narrow structures - and the large resonances with which they are some
times associated - arise in numerous studies in optics and photonics. In this paper we present an analytical method to study diffracted fields of optically thin gratings that highlights the nonanalyticities associated with the anomalies. Using this approach we can immediately derive diffracted fields for any polarization in a compact notation. While our equations are approximate, they fully respect energy conservation in the electromagnetic field, and describe the large exchanges of energy between incident and diffracted fields that can arise even for thin gratings.
