Cloaking is typically reciprocal. We introduce here the concept of \emph{transmittable nonreciprocal cloaking} whereby the cloaking system operates as a standard omnidirectional cloak for external illumination, but can transmit light from…
Studying the coherence of an optical field is typically compartmentalized with respect to its different optical degrees of freedom (DoFs) -- spatial, temporal, and polarization. Although this traditional approach succeeds when the DoFs are…

Previous proposals to permit non-exponential free-path statistics in radiative transfer have not included support for volume and boundary sources that are spatially uncorrelated from the scattering events in the medium. Birth-collision free…
Phase transitions, non-Hermiticity and nonreciprocity play central roles in fundamental physics. However, the triple interplay of these three fields is of lack in the quantum domain. Here, we show nonreciprocal parity-time-symmetric phase…
In the framework of linear optics, light fields do not interact with each other in a medium. Yet, when their field amplitude becomes comparable to the electron binding energies of matter, the nonlinear motion of these electrons emits new…
The reciprocity principle is that, when an emitted wave gets scattered on an object, the scattering transition amplitude does not change if we interchange the source and the detector - in other words, if incoming waves are interchanged with…

We demonstrate that ultrafast nonlinear dynamics gives rise to reciprocity breaking in a random photonic medium. Reciprocity breaking is observed via the suppression of coherent backscattering, a manifestation of weak localization of light.…
A system consisting of two single-mode cavities spatially separated and connected by an optical fiber and multiple two-level atoms trapped in the cavities is considered. If the atoms resonantly and collectively interact with the local…
