We propose a two-dimensional array made of a double-layer of vertically separated graphene nanoribbons. The transfer matrix method and coupled mode theory are utilized to quantitatively depict the transfer properties of the system. We present a way to calculate the radiative and the intrinsic loss factors, combined with finite-difference time-domain simulation, conducting the complete analytical analysis of the unidirectional reflectionless phenomenon. By adjusting the Fermi energy and the vertical distance between two graphene nanoribbons, the plasmonic resonances are successfully excited, and the unique phenomena can be realized at the exceptional points. Our research presents the potential in the field of optics and innovative technologies to create advanced optical devices that operate in the mid-infrared range, such as terahertz antennas and reflectors.

Tunable dual-band unidirectional reflectionless phenomena in a one-dimensional waveguide coupled with a cavity optomechanical system driven by external driving fields were investigated. The results indicated that dual-band unidirectional reflectionlessnesses can be obtained by appropriately adjusting the strengths of the external driving fields, phase shift between the two optical cavities, coupling strengths of the optical cavities to the waveguide and decay rates of the two cavities and mechanical resonators. Moreover their peaks can be tuned by changing both the effective optomechanical coupling strengths and phase shift, which can achieve unidirectional reflectionlessness by adjusting the external driving fields when the phase shift is difficult to adjust precisely.

We propose a type of reflectionless graphene perfect absorber (GPA) in which the reflection channel is forbidden, while the transmission channel is open. Peak absorption of 99.97% in the near-infrared is numerically demonstrated for monolayer graphene loaded on a one-dimensional silicon photonic crystal slab with rhomboid cross sections that supports parity symmetric unidirectional guided resonances (UGRs).

In this work we theoretically study the exceptional points and reflection spectra characteristics of a grating coupled metal-insulator-metal heterostructure, which is a non-Hermitian system. Our results show that by selecting suitable geometrical parameters with grating periodicity @150 nm, that satisfy zero reflection condition, double exceptional points appear in a mode bifurcation regime. Furthermore, the thickness of partition metal layer between two cavities plays an important role in controlling the reflection properties of the heterostructure.

We present experimental and numerical results for the fluctuation properties in the eigenfrequency spectra and of the scattering matrix of closed and open unidirectional quantum graphs, respectively. Unidirectional quantum graphs, that are composed of bonds connected by reflectionless vertices, were introduced by Akila and Gutkin [Akila and Gutkin, J. Phys.
