Abstract: The stationary states and switching dynamics of the parity-time (PT) symmetric coupled system with k-wavenumber Scarf II potential in the self-defocusing nonlinear regime have been analysed. The eigenmodes with central peaks are evolved in the linear regime, whereas those with central dips are evolved in the defocusing nonlinear regime, for ground, 2nd, and 4th excited states. The threshold condition of the PT-symmetry breaking and the effect of coupling, self-defocusing nonlinearity, and width of the potential on the high and low-frequency modes of the ground and excited states have been analysed. The stability of the eigenmodes is verified using the linear stability analysis. The power-switching dynamics between the gain and lossy channels of the system has been analysed. The input power-dependent switching and the effects of gain/loss and potential width on the switching are discussed.
