This study proposes a dynamically tunable mechanism using phase-change materials to achieve a reconfigurable non-Hermitian system that enables chiral exceptional points and tunable non-reciprocal transmission. The tunable properties are nonvolatile and require no static power consumption.
Non-Hermitian optics has emerged as a feasible and versatile platform to explore many extraordinary wave phenomena and novel applications. However, owing to ineluctable systematic errors, the constructed non-Hermitian phenomena could be easily broken, thus leading to a compromising performance in practice. Here we theoretically proposed a dynamically tunable mechanism through GST-based phase-change material (PCM) to achieve a reconfigurable nonHermitian system, which is robust to access the chiral exceptional point (EP). Assisted by PCM that provides tunable coupling efficiency, the effective Hamiltonian of the studied doubly-coupledring-based non-Hermitian system can be effectively modulated to resist the external perturbations, thus enabling the reconfigurable chiral EP and a tunable non-reciprocal transmission. Moreover, such tunable properties are nonvolatile and require no static power consumption. With these superior performances, our findings pave a promising way for reconfigurable non-Hermitian photonic devices, which may find applications in tunable on-chip sensors, isolators and so on.
