contents We propose a scheme to achieving simultaneous nonreciprocal unconventional photon blockade in a system of two coupled spining resonators marked by modes a and b, each incorporating an degenerate optical parametric amplifier (DOPA). By rotating the resonators, input light from opposite directions induces opposite Sagnac-Fizeau shifts. These shifts result in the emergence or absence of quantum destructive interference in two-photon excitation processes. Specifically, when destructive quantum interference occurs, photons from one input direction are simultaneously blocked in both resonators, whereas the absence of complete destructive quantum interference causes the blockade effect to vanish for inputs from the opposite direction. We analytically give the optimal parameter conditions to achieve simultaneous strong photon blockade with the parametric amplification. By adjusting the Sagnac-Fizeau shifts, we can make mode a nonreciprocal photon blockade, while mode b exhibits photon blockade in both directions. This work lays a theoretical foundation for the development of multimode simultaneous nonreciprocal unconventional single-photon devices, which hold promising potential in multichannel topological optics and chiral quantum technologies.
