Symmetry-Protected Scattering in Non-Hermitian Linear Systems

Symmetry plays fundamental role in physics and the nature of symmetry changes in non-Hermitian physics.Here the symmetry-protected scattering in non-Hermitian linear systems is investigated by employing the discrete symmetries that classify the random matrices.The even-parity symmetries impose strict constraints on the scattering coefficients:the time-reversal(C and K) symmetries protect the symmetric transmission or reflection;the pseudo-Hermiticity(Q symmetry) or the inversion(P) symmetry protects the symmetric transmission and reflection.For the inversion-combined time-reversal symmetries,the symmetric features on the transmission and reflection interchange.The odd-parity symmetries including the particle-hole symmetry,chiral symmetry,and sublattice symmetry cannot ensure the scattering to be symmetric.These guiding principles are valid for both Hermitian and non-Hermitian linear systems.Our findings provide fundamental insights into symmetry and scattering ranging from condensed matter physics to quantum physics and optics.     

一维取向LTL型分子筛荧光阵列的快速组装

通过有效控制合成液配比,合成出了形貌规则、结晶度高且具有不同长径比的LTL型分子筛晶粒。采用"瓶中造船法",在不同长径比的LTL型分子筛晶粒孔道中组装稀土有机配合物,制得LTL分子筛/Eu-TTA主-客体荧光材料。荧光光谱表征结果表明,在激发波长为350 nm时,长径比为0.2的LTL分子筛/Eu-TTA晶粒在617 nm处的5D0→7F2发光强度最大,而长径比为3的晶粒发光强度最小。最后,将长径比为0.2的LTL分子筛/Eu-TTA晶粒在PEI修饰的玻璃表面快速擦涂10 s后,就制得厘米尺寸的一维取向LTL型分子筛荧光阵列。SEM表征结果证实,该分子筛荧光阵列中几乎所有的LTL分子筛晶粒都沿着与底基表面垂直的c轴方向一维高密度、单层有序排列。在激发波长为365 nm时,该一维取向LTL分子筛荧光阵列发出鲜艳的红色荧光。     

Wavepacket Dynamics in a Non-Hermitian PT Symmetric Tight-Binding Chain

We examine the time development of a wavepacket in a Non-Hermitian PT symmetric tight-binding chain based on the Bethe ansatz solutions. The complete orthogonal sets in both unbroken and broken PT symmetry regions are established with respect to an inner product in terms of CPT conjugation. The dynamical development of a stationary wavepacket is exhibited, showing the impacts from additional imaginary potentials within unbroken and broken symmetric regimes. Our result indicates that there are distinct dynamic characteristics for both two regions. The unbroken symmetric imaginary end potentials can be regarded as a special kind of boundary condition in the sense of Hermitian quantum mechanics.

Topology of a parity-time symmetric non-Hermitian rhombic lattice

We investigate the topological properties of a trimerized parity–time(PT)symmetric non-Hermitian rhombic lattice.Although the system is PT-symmetric,the topology is not inherited from the Hermitian lattice;in contrast,the topology can be altered by the non-Hermiticity and depends on the couplings between the sublattices.The bulk–boundary correspondence is valid and the Bloch bulk captures the band topology.Topological edge states present in the two band gaps and are predicted from the global Zak phase obtained through the Wilson loop approach.In addition,the anomalous edge states compactly localize within two diamond plaquettes at the boundaries when all bands are flat at the exceptional point of the lattice.Our findings reveal the topological properties of the??PT-symmetric non-Hermitian rhombic lattice and shed light on the investigation of multi-band non-Hermitian topological phases.
