Abstract :
The optical properties of PT-symmetric epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) periodic stack of the layers with balanced loss and gain have been examined. The effect of periodicity on the unidirectional tunneling phenomenon and symmetry breaking is determined. The performed analysis provides insight in the main features of the second harmonic (SH) generation by the ENZ PT-symmetric periodic structure.
