Here we report the experimental demonstration of the nonlinear non-Hermitian skin effect (NHSE) in an effective Kerr nonlinear temporal photonic lattice, where the high-power requirements and lack of tunability intrinsic to optical materials are overcome by an artificial nonlinearity arising from optoelectronic feedforward. Thanks to Kerr self-trapping, the nonlinear NHSE is demonstrated to possess much better localization strength and robustness at the preferred boundary compared to the linear case. Away from the preferred boundary, Kerr self-trapping can even inhibit NHSE-induced transport and form stable skin solitons. Harnessing the nonlinearity-controlled NHSE, we judiciously design an optical router with a flexibly tuned output port. Our findings promise great applications in robust signal transmission, routing, and processing.

Subskin modes in a nonlinear non-Hermitian system
In a nonlinear non-Hermitian lattice, subskin modes localized below the edge can form without the strict coupling constraints required in linear systems, while deeper subskin modes still require fine-tuning.

Observation of localization reversal and harmonic generation in nonlinear non-Hermitian skin effect
In a nonlinear Hatano-Nelson model and a microwave metamaterial, increasing the field intensity reverses the non-Hermitian skin effect, switching the edge localization from one end of the lattice to the other, and the...

Nonlinear skin modes and fixed points
In nonlinear non-Hermitian lattices, open-boundary skin-mode energies are no longer a subset of the semi-infinite spectrum, and coupling impurities create new localized modes and dark solitons.

Complex Frequency Fingerprint: Basic Concept and Theory
A measured response matrix at one driving frequency is algebraically continued into the complex-frequency plane, yielding a fingerprint that identifies non-Hermitian skin modes and complex-energy quasiparticle peaks.
