论文摘要
引入了依赖平衡增益和损失的一维超材料($ {\ cal pt} $)对称性的一维超物质,包括磁耦合的拆分环谐振器(SRRS)。一种特定的拓扑结合了非平凡的(拓扑)二聚体构型与微不足道的(非探针)二聚体构型,该构造既不是获得增益或损失的中央SRR。通过关注这种拓扑$ {\ cal pt} $莫非材料(PTMM)的动态方面,在数值上证明了在中央SRR上定位的{\ em受拓扑保护的界面状态}的存在。相应的{\ em二次特征值问题的解决方案表明,受保护的状态实际上是拓扑ptmm的强大本本特征,其特征值在两个波段频谱的间隙(中间隙状态)的中间分离出来。直接的数值模拟已被进一步用于确定这些状态在{\ em dimerization强度}和{\ em增益 - 损失系数}的参数空间中的鲁棒性和动态稳定性。
A one-dimensional metamaterial with parity-time (${\cal PT}$) symmetry that relies on balanced gain and loss is introduced, comprising of magnetically coupled split-ring resonators (SRRs). A particular topology that combines a non-trivial (topological) dimer configuration with a trivial (non-topological) dimer configuration which are separated by a central SRR with neither gain or loss, is investigated. By focusing on the dynamical aspects of such a topological ${\cal PT}$ metamaterial (PTMM), the existence of {\em topologically protected interface states} which are localized at the central SRR is demonstrated numerically. The solution of the corresponding {\em quadratic eigenvalue problem} reveals that the protected state is actually a robust eigenmode of the topological PTMM, whose eigenvalue is isolated in the middle of the gap (mid-gap state) of the two-band frequency spectrum. Direct numerical simulations have been further used to determine the robustness and dynamic stability of these states in the parameter space of the {\em dimerization strength} and the {\em gain-loss coefficient}.
