contents We demonstrate how the relative phase between the multiple time periodic driving can decide the emergence and the favorable localization direction of non-Hermitian skin modes. For the static non-Hermitian quantum chain with parity time symmetry, non-Hermitian skin effects (NHSEs) can be prohibited. As the dynamical driving is turned on, NHSEs get artificially reactivated, where the relative phase can serve as the controlling switch by breaking the temporal symmetry constraints. Meanwhile, a change of relative phase can also alter the spatial structures of the long-time averaged effective Hamiltonian, which will consequently lead to the variation of skin localization direction for systems of higher dimensions. Our formalisms can be generally realized in diverse optical and mechanical platforms, and will pave the way for realizing tunable skin density profiles.
