Exceptional points in dielectric spheroid

Abstract

Evolution of resonant frequencies and resonant modes as dependent on the aspect ratio is considered in a dielectric high index spheroid. Because of rotational symmetry of the spheroid the solutions are separated by the azimuthal index $m$. By the two-fold variation of a refractive index and the aspect ratio we achieve exceptional points (EPs) at which the resonant frequencies and resonant modes are coalesced in the sectors $m=0$ for both TE and TM polarizations and $m=1$.
