Topological Transitions with an Imaginary Aubry-Andre-Harper Potential

Bofeng Zhu, Li-Jun Lang, Qiang Wang +2

We study one-dimensional lattices with imaginary-valued Aubry-Andre-Harper (AAH) potentials. Such lattices can host edge states with purely imaginary eigenenergies, which differ fr…

Anomalous single-mode lasing induced by nonlinearity and the non-Hermitian skin effect

B. F. Zhu, Q. Wang, D. Leykam +3

Single-mode operation is a desirable but elusive property for lasers operating at high pump powers. Typically, single-mode lasing is attainable close to threshold, but increasing t…

Laser Mode Bifurcations Induced by -Breaking Exceptional Points

B. F. Zhu, Q. J. Wang, Y. D. Chong

A laser consisting of two independently-pumped resonators can exhibit mode bifurcations that evolve out of the exceptional points (EPs) of the linear system at threshold. The EPs a…
