Theory and numerical modelling of parity-time symmetric structures for photonics

This thesis presents the study of a relatively new class of photonic structures in-voking Parity-Time (PT)-symmetry. PT-symmetric structures in photonics, as a realisation of PT-symmetric Quantum Mechanics problems, are constructed by a judicious design of refractive index modulation which requires...
