| contents | An arbitrary optical waveform can be synthesized by complex-frequency waves as well as by realfrequency harmonic waves. While single complex-frequency wave with exponentially rising waveform can be perfectly absorbed in lossless structures. Here, we propose that arbitrary waveforms can be captured without any absorption through the synthesis of complex frequencies in a lossless system. The scattering matrix zeros of the system correspond to a set of complex frequencies with exponentially rising waveforms, each of which can be virtually and perfectly absorbed. Thus, an arbitrary waveform, decomposed into these complex frequencies automatically, can be captured without any absorption. Then, in a well-designed coupled cavity system, various waveforms such as exponentially decaying, Gaussian, rectangular, and triangular profiles, are captured with high efficiency. The proposed mechanism has potential applications in enhancing light-matter interactions, optical energy storage, and photonic quantum memory. |
