Abstract

Abstract Optical parity-time (PT) symmetry has triggered a plethora of theoretical and experimental studies, and as a result non-Hermitian photonics is one of the frontiers of optics today. From unidirectional invisibility and coherent perfect absorbers to wireless power transfer and ultrasensitive sensors, non-hermiticity led to numerous important applications that rely on gain-loss synthetic structures. In particular, one such structure is that of complex photonic lattices that may exhibit exceptional points (EPs) around which the corresponding sensitivity is increased by orders of magnitude. Here, we investigate a new multiparametric family of non-Hermitian lattices that respects PT-symmetry, and examine their spectral sensitivity in terms of pseudospectra, as well, the angular excitation of the underlying EPs.
