Abstract
In recent years, non-Hermitian degeneracies, also known as exceptional points (EPs), have emerged as a new paradigm for engineering the response of optical systems. Among many different non-conservative photonic configurations, parity-time (PT) symmetric arrangements are of particular interest since they provide an excellent platform to explore the physics of exceptional points. In this talk, I will present some of the work in our group, where the intriguing properties of exceptional points that are arising in judiciously designed parity-time-symmetric systems are utilized to address two of the long standing challenges in the field of integrated photonics: enforcing single mode lasing in intrinsically multimode cavities, and enhancing sensitivity of micro-resonators.
