Abstract
Research on parity-time (PT) symmetry and exceptional points in non-Hermitian laser systems has been extensively conducted. However, in practical electrically injected PT-symmetric lasers, the frequency detuning and linewidth enhancement factor of the laser can influence the symmetry breaking of the system in another dimension. We find that the previous exceptional point now transforms into a dynamic phase transition region, where the states are temporally unstable, indicating the occurrence of multimode oscillation. The relative phase and field amplitude ratio in this region also exhibit many novel phenomena indicating its instability. This region can be manipulated by adjusting the coupling strength between adjacent waveguides and the pumping intensity in the loss waveguide. Experimentally, we characterize the near-field, far-field, and spectrum of several structures, and the results validate our theoretical model. This work elucidates the dynamic process and phase transition process of electrically injected PT-symmetric lasers, providing support for the practical application of PT-symmetric lasers.
