Unidirectional flow of lossless exciton-polariton signals

We consider the propagation of intensity signals in the discrete nonlinear driven-dissipative Schrodinger equation, well-known for the description of a variety of systems from coupled arrays of Kerr nonlinear cavities to exciton-polariton arrays. By periodic switching of a driving laser field, we fi...
