Synchronization is of importance in both fundamental and applied physics, but its demonstration at the micro/nanoscale is mainly limited to low-frequency oscillations such as mechanical resonators. We report the synchronization of two coupled optical microresonators, in which the high-frequency resonances in the optical domain are aligned with reduced noise. It is found that two types of synchronization regimes emerge with either the first- or second-order transition, both presenting a process of spontaneous symmetry breaking. In the second-order regime, the synchronization happens with an invariant topological character number and a larger detuning than that of the first-order case. Furthermore, an unconventional hysteresis behavior is revealed for a time-dependent coupling strength, breaking the static limitation and the temporal reciprocity. The synchronization of optical microresonators offers great potential in reconfigurable simulations of many-body physics and scalable photonic devices on a chip.

非平衡系统几乎存在于自然和人造系统的各个层面上,它以非零连续的流量为特征。完全非对称简单排他过程被认为是对这类系统建模和模拟的一个范例。对蒙特卡罗方法如何模拟该类系统进行了介绍。分析了通过蒙特卡罗模拟观察到的一些有趣的物理现象如自发性对称破缺、有限尺寸效应和跳跃过程。非对称的低-低密度相破缺与系统的有限尺寸效应密切相关,建议开展更细致的蒙特卡罗模拟以进一步加深对仍处于争论中的非平衡系统有限尺寸效应的认识。
