Abstract

The spectral method was used to solve the problem of interaction of short optical pulses with RT-symmetric photonic crystals under conditions of frequency singularity. It is shown that with a small deviation from the exceptional point of spontaneous decay of PT-symmetric field modes, a frequency singularity of the transmission and reflection coefficients of the structure arises. This leads to a significant narrowing of the pulse spectra and an increase in their amplitude and duration with unidirectional Bragg reflection.
