Popis: The nonreciprocal wave propagation in PT-symmetric periodic stack of binary dielectric layers characterised by balances loss and gain is analysed. The main mechanisms and resonant properties of the scattered plane waves are illustrated by the simulation results, and the effects of the periodicity and individual layer parameters on the stack nonreciprocal response are discussed. Gaussian beam dynamics in this type of structure is examined. The beam splitting in PT-symmetric periodic structure is observed. It is demonstrated that for slant beam incidence the break of the symmetry of field distribution takes place.
