Microwave Tunneling And Robust Information Transfer Based On Parity-Time-Symmetric Absorber-Emitter Pairs, Zhicheng Xiao, Younes Ra’Di, Sergei Tretyakov, Andrea Alù Nov 2019

Microwave Tunneling And Robust Information Transfer Based On Parity-Time-Symmetric Absorber-Emitter Pairs, Zhicheng Xiao, Younes Ra’Di, Sergei Tretyakov, Andrea Alù

Advanced Science Research Center

Robust signal transfer in the form of electromagnetic waves is of fundamental importance in modern technology, yet its operation is often challenged by unwanted modifications of the channel connecting transmitter and receiver. Parity-time- (PT-) symmetric systems, combining active and passive elements in a balanced form, provide an interesting route in this context. Here, we demonstrate a PT-symmetric microwave system operating in the extreme case in which the channel is shorted through a small reactance, which acts as a nearly impenetrable obstacle, and it is therefore expected to induce large reflections and poor transmission. After placing a gain element behind the …
