Frobenius-Perron operator for asymmetric backscattering in deformed microdisk cavities — •Julius Kullig and Jan Wiersig — Institut für Theoretische Physik, Universität Magdeburg, Germany

Due to radiation and absorption optical microcavities cannot be described by hermitian but non-hermitian Hamiltonians of open quantum systems. This leads in general to non-orthogonal quasibound states. In case of asymmetric optical cavities this is related to an imbalance between clockwise (CW) and counter-clockwise (CCW) propagating waves which manifests in a finite chirality of quasibound states [1, 2, 3, 4]. This has applications e.g. in optical sensors [5], where so-called exceptional points in parameter space can be used to enhance sensitivity [6].

We study the backscattering process between CW and CCW waves from pure classical ray dynamics. To this end we construct a finite approximation of Frobenius-Perron operator F to describe the time evolution of phase-space densities. The eigenstates of F show interesting analogues to quasibound states, including non-orthogonality and chirality. Our method is demonstrated for a spiral geometry and the asymmetric Limaçon.
