Waveguides subject to spatiotemporal modulations are known to exhibit nonreciprocal vibration transmission, whereby interchanging the locations of the source and receiver change the end-to-end transmission characteristics. The scenario of…

Nonreciprocity is most commonly associated with a large difference in the transmitted energy when the locations of the source and receiver are interchanged. This energy bias is accompanied by a difference in the transmitted phase. We…

We explore nonreciprocal vibration transmission in a nonlinear periodic waveguide. Nonlinearity and asymmetry, the two necessary requirements for nonreciprocity, are both introduced within the unit cell of the periodic waveguide. We focus…

Recently, nonreciprocal phase shifters have attracted a surge of interest thanks to the advent of nonreciprocal electromagnetic systems, such as nonreciprocal metasurfaces, nonreciprocal-beam antennas, and invisibility cloaks. To overcome…

Physical systems with material properties modulated in time provide versatile routes for designing magnetless nonreciprocal devices. Traditionally, nonreciprocity in such systems is achieved exploiting both temporal and spatial modulations,…

We prove the possibility of achieving non-reciprocal wave propagation in space-time modulated media and give an asymptotic analysis of the non-reciprocity property in terms of the amplitude of the time-modulation. Such modulation causes a…

Acoustic phased arrays are capable of steering and focusing a beam of sound via selective coordination of the spatial distribution of phase angles between multiple sound emitters. Constrained by the principle of reciprocity, conventional…

The thermal properties of a material with a spatio-temporal modulation in both the thermal conductivity and the mass density are studied. The special configuration studied here consists of a modulation in a wave-like fashion. It is found…

In lossless acoustic systems, mode transitions are always time-reversible, consistent with Lorentz reciprocity, giving rise to symmetric sound manipulation in space-time. To overcome this fundamental limitation and break space-time…

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…

Achieving non-reciprocity and building nonreciprocal components through spatio-temporal modulation of material properties has attracted a lot of attention in the recent past as an alternative to the more traditional approach of exploiting…

This work presents a mechanism by which non-reciprocal wave transmission is achieved in a class of gyric metamaterial lattices with embedded rotating elements. A modulation of the device's angular momentum is obtained via prescribed…

A phased-array antenna is a device that generates radiation patterns whose shape and direction can be electronically controlled by tailoring the amplitude and phase of the signals that feed each element of the array. These devices provide…

In this paper, it is shown that non-reciprocity can be observed in time-varying media without employing spatio-temporal modulated permittivities. We show that by using only two one dimensional Fabry-Perot slabs with time-periodic…

Acoustic and elastic metamaterials with time- and space-dependent material properties have received great attention recently as a means to break reciprocity for propagating mechanical waves, achieving greater directional control. One…

Nonreciprocity in space-time modulated photonic crystals has been investigated in the context of nonreciprocal propagation and polarization. Here, we investigate a reconfigurable nonreciprocal wave growth in space-time modulated crystals.…

Circumventing the reciprocity invariance has posed an interesting challenge in the design of modern devices for wave engineering. In passive devices, operating the device in the nonlinear response regime is a common means for realizing…

We study longitudinal and transverse wave propagation in beams with elastic properties that are periodically varying in space and time. Spatiotemporal modulation of the elastic properties breaks mechanical reciprocity and induces one-way…

Space-time modulation adds another powerful degree of freedom to the manipulation of classical wave systems. It opens the door for complex control of wave behavior beyond the reach of stationary systems, such as nonreciprocal wave transport…

Significant amplitude-independent and passive non-reciprocal wave motion can be achieved in a one dimensional (1D) discrete chain of masses and springs with bilinear elastic stiffness. Some fundamental asymmetric spatial modulations of the…
