The ability to create linear systems that manifest broadband nonreciprocal wave propagation would provide for exquisite control over acoustic signals for electronic filtering in communication and noise control. Until now, acoustic…
Realization of non-reciprocal devices, such as isolators and circulators, is of fundamental importance in microwave and photonic communication systems. This can be achieved by breaking time-reversal symmetry in the system or exploiting…
Slowing down, stopping, and reversing a signal is a core functionality for information processing. Here, we show that this functionality can be realized by tuning the dispersion of a periodic system through a dispersionless, or flat, band.…
Over the last couple of years, the digital coding acoustic metasurfaces have been developed rapidly as a highly active research area for their unique and flexible manipulation of acoustic wavefronts. Nevertheless, all recent attentions in…
Static metasurfaces have shown to be prominent compact structures for reciprocal and frequency-invariant transformation of electromagnetic waves in space. However, incorporating temporal variation to static metasurfaces would result in…
Over sixty years ago, it was hypothesized that specially designed acoustic systems that leveraged the acoustoelectric effect between phonons and charge carriers could revolutionize radio frequency electronic systems by allowing nonlinear…
Directional amplifiers are an important resource in quantum information processing, as they protect sensitive quantum systems from excess noise. Here, we propose an implementation of phase-preserving and phase-sensitive directional…
Non-reciprocal devices, which allow the non-reciprocal signal routing, serve as the fundamental elements in photonic and microwave circuits and are crucial in both classical and quantum information processing. The radiation-pressure-induced…
The Josephson diode, a non-reciprocal quantum element analogous to the familiar semiconductor p-n junction diode, has been realized in solid-state systems but remains unexplored in tunable atomtronic circuits. In this work, we propose and…
Nonreciprocal devices are a key element for signal routing and noise isolation. Rapid development of quantum technologies has boosted the demand for a new generation of miniaturized and low-loss nonreciprocal components. Here we use a pair…
Flexible mechanical metamaterials are compliant structures engineered to achieve unique properties via the large deformation of their components. While their static character has been studied extensively, the study of their dynamic…
Metal reflects electromagnetic waves because of the large conductivity that is responsible for dissipation. During which the waves undergo a 180$^\circ$ phase change that is independent of the frequency. There is no counterpart material for…
The physical properties of a periodic distribution of absorbent resonators is used in this work to design a tunable wideband bandstop acoustic filter. Analytical and numerical simulations as well as experimental validations show that the…
The appearance of nonlinear effects in elastic wave propagation is one of the most reliable and sensitive indicators of the onset of material damage. However, these effects are usually very small and can be detected only using cumbersome…
We report theoretical and experimental results for a new type of homogenized acoustic metamaterials with negative effective mass density. We constructed one-dimensional metamaterial, which is a tube with an array of very thin elastic…
Superconducting devices with broken time-reversal and spatial-inversion symmetries can exhibit novel superconducting phenomena. The observation of superconducting diode effects, which is applicable for dissipationless rectification,…
Superconducting diode effect, in analogy to the nonreciprocal resistive charge transport in semiconducting diode, is a nonreciprocity of dissipationless supercurrent. Such an exotic phenomenon originates from intertwining between…
We propose a method for dynamically controlling the properties of a metamaterial that mimics electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) by introducing varactor diodes to manipulate the structural symmetry of the metamaterial. Dynamic…
Nonreciprocity can be passively achieved by harnessing material nonlinearities. In particular, networks of nonlinear bistable elements with asymmetric energy landscapes have recently been shown to support unidirectional transition waves.…
We report on a new type of rectifier which is in full contact equilibrium and thus, if down-sized to the nanoscale, shows no drift even if exposed to elevated temperatures and/or extreme waiting times. This is in contrast to existing diodes…
