Optical Realization of Relativistic Non-Hermitian Quantum Mechanics
Open accessAbstract
Light propagation in distributed-feedback optical structures with gain or loss regions is shown to provide an accessible laboratory tool to visualize in optics the spectral properties of the one-dimensional Dirac equation with non-Hermitian interactions. Spectral singularities and PT symmetry breaking of the Dirac Hamiltonian are shown to correspond to simple observable physical quantities and are related to well-known physical phenomena such as resonance narrowing and laser oscillation.

TL;DR
Light propagation in distributed-feedback optical structures with gain/loss regions is proposed as a classical optical simulator of the one-dimensional non-Hermitian Dirac equation. Spectral singularities and PT symmetry breaking of the Dirac Hamiltonian are mapped to observable DFB phenomena such as resonance narrowing and laser oscillation.
Key findings
- For a PT-non-invariant uniform-gain DFB structure, the critical normalized gain is λ_c L ≈ 1.755 for m₀L = 1; at λ_c two resonances cross the real energy axis and become spectral singularities, and above λ_c bound states emerge and the spectrum ceases to be real-valued.
- For the same structure with uniform loss, at λ_c two antiresonances cross the real axis; the spectral transmission does not diverge, and the bound states have Im(E) < 0, so perturbations are damped rather than amplified.
- For a PT-invariant DFB structure with symmetric gain and loss regions, PT symmetry breaking occurs at λ_c ≈ 4.46/L for m₀L = 1, with two pairs of complex-conjugate eigenvalues appearing from resonances and antiresonances crossing the real axis.
- The paper reports that spectral singularities and PT symmetry breaking of the Dirac Hamiltonian correspond to measurable DFB quantities, including resonance narrowing and the onset of lasing.
Methods
- Theoretical mapping of the 1D Dirac equation with real mass m(x) and complex vector potential V(x) to coupled-mode equations for counterpropagating optical envelopes in a DFB grating.
- Scattering theory and transfer-matrix analysis: the transfer matrix M(E), Green function/resolvent, and zeros of M₁₁ and M₂₂ are used to classify continuous spectrum, point spectrum, resonances, and spectral singularities.
- Two examples are analyzed numerically for m₀L = 1: a uniform index grating with homogeneous gain (PT-non-invariant) and a uniform grating with symmetric homogeneous gain/loss regions (PT-invariant).
Limitations
- The paper states no limitations.
- Evident from the text: this is a theoretical proposal for a classical optical simulator, not an experimental realization; no fabricated device or measured data are reported.
- Evident from the text: the analysis is restricted to the 1D Dirac equation and two specific DFB configurations with uniform grating and piecewise-constant gain/loss, with numerical examples given for m₀L = 1.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-23, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-23 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
