Non-Hermitian physics has emerged as a new paradigm that profoundly changes our understanding of non-equilibrium systems, introducing novel concepts such exceptional points, spectral topology, and non-Hermitian skin effects (NHSEs). Most existing studies focus on eigenstates, whereas dynamic properties have been discussed only recently, the NHSEs are not yet confirmed in experiments. Here, we report experimental observation dynamics using tunable one-dimensional nonreciprocal double-chain...

Optomechanical quantum interfaces can be utilized to connect systems with distinctively different frequencies in hybrid networks. Here we present a scheme of nonreciprocal state conversion between microwave and optical photons via an optomechanical interface. By introducing auxiliary cavity manipulating the phase differences linearized couplings, uni-directional transmission achieved. The interface function as isolator, circulator, two-way switch that routes input states selected output...

Flexible dielectrics with high energy density (Ue) and low loss (Ul) under elevated electric fields are especially attractive for the next-generation storage devices, e.g., high-pulse film capacitors. However, raising Ue by introducing dielectric constant materials generally increases Ul, which is detrimental to devices. To overcome this trade-off, a new strategy consisting of elevating electron polarization through incorporation 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-N-oxy (TEMPO) units...

The spectrum of a non-Hermitian system generically forms two-dimensional complex Riemannian manifold with distinct topology from the underlying parameter space. This spectral permits eigenvalue trajectories to braid into knots. In this paper, through analyses encircling loops, exceptional points, and their topology, we uncover necessary considerations for constructing knots establish relation topology. Using an acoustic two periodic synthetic dimensions, experimentally realize several index...

Dielectric polymers that exhibit high energy density Ue, low dielectric loss, and thermal resistance are ideal materials for next-generation electrical equipment. The most widely utilized approach to improving Ue involves augmenting the polarization through increasing constant εr or breakdown strength Eb. However, as a conflicting parameter, loss also increases inevitably at same time. In addition, due long-term work under strong electric field potential, often produce damage (electrical...
