Josephson-Phase Reversal of Non-Bloch Andreev Propagation

Abstract

Non-Hermitian control is difficult in solid-state systems due to fixed dissipation. Here, we show that in a spin-orbit-coupled planar Josephson junction, changing only the Josephson phase reverses the non-Bloch propagation of a low-energy Andreev band and switches its boundary accumulation between junction edges. The phase reshapes the band's spin and electron-hole composition, causing a fixed reservoir to unequally attenuate counterpropagating modes. Weak-loss theory links this phase-controlled loss imbalance to boundary-selected complex momenta, offering an in situ route to reconfigurable non-Hermitian transport in superconducting platforms.
