Controlling electric, magnetic, and chiral dipolar emission with   PT-symmetric potentials
  We investigate the effect of parity-time (PT)-symmetric optical potentials on the radiation of achiral and chiral emitters. Mode coalescence and the appearance of exceptional points lead to orders-of-magnitude enhancements in the emitted dipole power. Further, the emitter can be tuned to behave as a strong optical source or absorber based on the non-Hermiticity parameter. Chiral enantiomers radiating near PT metamaterials exhibit a 4.5-fold difference in their decay rate. The results of this work could enable new atom-cavity interactions for quantum optics, as well as all- optical enantio-specific separation.
