AbstractIt has been shown recently that the backscattering of wave propagation in one-dimensional disordered media can be entirely suppressed for normal incidence by adding sample-specific gain and loss components to the medium. Here, we study the Anderson localization behaviors of electromagnetic waves in such gain-loss balanced random non-Hermitian systems when the waves are obliquely incident on the random media. We also study the case of normal incidence when the sample-specific gain-loss profile is slightly altered so that the Anderson localization occurs. Our results show that the Anderson localization in the non-Hermitian system behaves differently from random Hermitian systems in which the backscattering is suppressed.

AbstractStructures absorbing electromagnetic waves in the infrared spectral region are important optical components in key areas such as biosensors, infrared images, thermal emitters, and special attention is required for reconfigurable devices. We propose a three-dimensional metal-dielectric plasmonic absorber with a layer of PCM’s (Phase Change Materials). The phase shift effects of PCMs are numerically analyzed, and it is possible to obtain a shifting control of the resonant absorption peaks between the amorphous and crystalline states using the Lorentz–Lorenz relation. By using this empirical relation, we analyzed the peak absorption shift at intermediate phases between the amorphous and the crystalline. The geometric parameters of the structure with the PCM layer in the semi-crystalline state were adjusted to exhibit strong absorption for normal incidence. The effects of the oblique incidence on the absorption for the TM and TE polarization modes were also analyzed. Our results demonstrate that PCMs have great potential for reconfigurable nanophotonic devices.
