First Experimental Demonstration of Coherent Perfect Rotation

ORAL

Abstract

We present experimental results from a recent laboratory demonstration of coherent perfect polarization rotation (CPR) which is a conservative, reversible counterpart to coherent perfect absorption (a.k.a. the anti-laser). We conclude with a brief summary of new experiments underway that will be critical to applications of CPR in various non-reciprocal optical technologies.
