We investigate the scattering response of parity-time (PT) symmetric structures. We show that, due to the local flow of energy between gain and loss regions, such systems can deflect light in unusual ways, as a function of the gain/loss…

We show that for a general system of N s-wave point scatterers, there are always N eigenmodes. These eigenmodes or eigenchannels play the same role as spherical harmonics for a spherically symmetric target--they give a phase shift only. In…

We show that in one dimension the transfer matrix M of any scattering potential v coincides with the S-matrix of an associated time-dependent non-Hermitian 2 x 2 matrix Hamiltonian H(\tau). If v is real-valued, H(\tau) is pseudo-Hermitian…

We studied the energy dependence of the 2D skew scattering from strong potential, for which the Born approximation is not applicable. Since the skew scattering cross section is zero both at low and at high energies, it exhibits a maximum as…

We consider a quantum particle in a waveguide which consists of an infinite straight Dirichlet strip divided by a thin semitransparent barrier on a line parallel to the walls which is modeled by a $\delta$ potential. We show that if the…

We study a "strongly-coupled" (SC) polariton system formed between the atom-like intersubband transitions in a semiconductor nanostructure and the THz optical modes that are localised at the edges of a gold aperture. The polaritons can be…

In this paper, we study the problem of scattering by several strictly convex obstacles, with smooth boundary and satisfying a non eclipse condition. We show, in dimension 2 only, the existence of a spectral gap for the meromorphic…

Studies into scatterings of photonic structures have been so far overwhelmingly focused on their dependencies on the spatial and spectral morphologies of the incident waves. In contrast, the evolution of scattering properties through…
