Nonreciprocal Topological Phonon Transfer Independent of Both Device Mass and Exceptional-Point Encircling Direction

Imposing topological operations encircling an exceptional point (EP) engenders unconventional oneway topological phonon transfer (TPT), strictly depending on the direction of EP -inclusive control loops and inherently limited to the small -mass regime of practical resonators. We here show how to beat these limitations and predict a mass -free unidirectional TPT by combining topological operations with the Fizeau light -dragging effect, which splits countercirculating optical modes. An efficient TPT happens when light enters from one chosen side of the fiber but not from the other, leading to a unique nonreciprocal TPT, independent of the direction of winding around the EP. Unlike previous proposals naturally sensitive to both mass and quality of quantum devices, our approach is almost immune to these factors. Remarkably, its threshold duration of adiabatic control loops for maintaining an optimal TPT can be easily shortened, yielding a top -speed -tunable perfect TPT that has no counterpart in previous demonstrations. The study paves a quite -general route to exploiting profoundly different chiral topological effects, independent of both EP -encircling direction and device mass.
