Nonreciprocal and non-Hermitian material response inspired by semiconductor transistors

In this talk, I will present an overview of the ongoing research work of my group on novel nonreciprocal and non-Hermitian metamaterials that have a bulk electromagnetic response inspired by the operation of a MOSFET transistor. We will show that such metamaterials enable rather exotic physics and can have potential applications in electromagnetic isolation or as wave amplifiers [1].
