7 «Single-sided scattering» in Fourier language Usual coupling constant of index grating: Δ Δ cos Δ Hence same coupling, = In more generality, coupling is complex but Δ Δ cos Δ phase here only means shift of grating position usual Fourier manipulation Single sided band means : But Δ cos sin Δ Δ Δ cos sin Δ 0 13 This is PT symmetry in the basic case What about PT symmetry In our basic implementation Re is symmetric and Im antisymmetric Re +Δl Δl Im x=0 αl αl 14

8 This is PT symmetry in more general case What about PT symmetry In a more general case Think of same Fourier rules as for signal processing k If x=0 is symm plane (to be checked) All vectors should be in the same plane 0 15 This is PT symmetry broken or not? Re Broken Unbroken Im since from on side at Bragg frequency? only for exact balance of and (cf. scattering picture). This is fully analogous to the case of merging eigenvalues Unbroken Broken 16

10 Practical implementation Requires four different layers in layered materials 19 or two different gratings possible a «shape» and a «material» grating (for Re and Im resp.) 20
