Enhancing the Sensitivity of Frequency and Energy Splitting Detection by Using Exceptional Points: Application to Microcavity Sensors for Single-Particle Detection
Abstract
Several types of sensors used in physics are based on the detection of splittings of resonant frequencies or energy levels. We propose here to operate such sensors at so-called exceptional points, which are degeneracies in open wave and quantum systems where at least two resonant frequencies or energy levels and the corresponding eigenstates coalesce. We argue that this has great potential for enhanced sensitivity provided that one is able to measure both the frequency splitting as well as the linewidth splitting. We apply this concept to a microcavity sensor for single-particle detection. An analytical theory and numerical simulations prove a more than threefold enhanced sensitivity. We discuss the possibility to resolve individual linewidths using active optical microcavities.Received 30 January 2014DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.112.203901© 2014 American Physical Society

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.
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.
