Asymmetric energy flow in coupled nonlinear LC transmission line

We constructed a coupled LC transmission line and studied the propagation of waves in it. We found asymmetric energy flow when we changed the driving conditions at the boundary. We analyzed this change and believe that it occurs because of the bandpass characteristics of the LC transmission line and high-order harmonic waves induced by nonlinearities. The LC transmission line could be used to simulate a microscopic crystal lattice. Therefore, we hope to observe thermal rectification in the system. We investigated the dependence of the system on different parameters, and then discussed the multi-frequency condition to aid in experimental verification.
