Light propagation in a nonlinear optical medium is nonreciprocal for spatially asymmetric linear permittivity. We here examine physical mechanism and properties of such nonreciprocity (NR). For this, we calculate transmission of light…
Breaking the reciprocity of wave propagation is a problem of fundamental interest, and a mucht-sought functionality in practical applications, both in photonics and phononics. Although it has been achieved using resonant linear scattering…

Adaptive optics (AO) systems rely on the principle of reciprocity, or symmetry with respect to the interchange of point sources and receivers. These systems use the light received from a low power emitter on or near a target to compensate…
Having simultaneously a high quality factor (i.e. a narrow resonant band) and a shorter interaction time between the resonating system and the external sources (i.e. a wide resonant band) is a desirable characteristic for mechanical…
We theoretically investigate the emergence of lateral (recoil) forces acting on generic dipole-type emitters in the vicinity of a reciprocal translation-invariant substrate. Surprisingly, we find that for linearly-polarized electric dipoles…

Inspired by a recently constructed commuting-projector Hamiltonian for a two-dimensional (2D) time-reversal-invariant topological superconductor [Wang et al., Phys. Rev. B 98, 094502 (2018)], we introduce a commuting-projector model that…

Photonic integrated circuits route and shape light on a chip, but back-reflections feed back into coherent on-chip lasers, destabilizing operation and corrupting signals. Robust operation requires an integrated optical isolator that…
It has been demonstrated that dynamic refractive index modulation, which breaks time-reversal symmetry, can be used to create on-chip non-reciprocal photonic devices. In order to achieve amplitude non-reciprocity, all such devices moreover…
