Particle transport and localization phenomena in condensed-matter systems can be modeled using a tight-binding lattice Hamiltonian. The ideal experimental emulation of such a model utilizes simultaneous, high-fidelity control and readout of each lattice site in a highly coherent quantum system. Here, we experimentally study quantum transport in one-dimensional and two-dimensional tight-binding lattices, emulated by a fully controllable $3 times 3$ array of superconducting qubits. We probe the propagation of entanglement throughout the lattice and extract the degree of localization in the Anderson and Wannier-Stark regimes in the presence of site-tunable disorder strengths and gradients. Our results are in quantitative agreement with numerical simulations and match theoretical predictions based on the tight-binding model. The demonstrated level of experimental control and accuracy in extracting the system observables of interest will enable the exploration of larger, interacting lattices where numerical simulations become intractable.

We study coherent dynamics of tight-binding systems interacting with static and oscillating external fields. We consider Bloch oscillations and Wannier-Stark localization caused by dc fields, and compare these effects to dynamic localization that occ urs in the presence of additional ac fields. Our analysis relies on quasienergy eigenstates, which take over the role of the usual Bloch waves. The widths of the quasienergy bands depend non-monotonically on the field parameters. If there is lattice disorder, the degree of the resulting Anderson localization is determined by the ratio of disorder strength and quasienergy band width. Therefore, the localization lengths can be controlled, within wide ranges, by adjusting the ac amplitude. Experimental realizations of our model systems are given by semiconductor superlattices in far-infrared laser fields, or by ultracold atoms in modulated standing light waves. In both cases the system parameters, as well as the field amplitudes and frequencies, are readily accessible to experimental control, suggesting these as highly attractive candidates for systematic study of localization phenomena.
Through the introduction of a new electron spin transport mechanism, a 2D donor electron spin quantum computer architecture is proposed. This design addresses major technical issues in the original Kane design, including spatial oscillations in the e xchange coupling strength and cross-talk in gate control. It is also expected that the introduction of a degree of non-locality in qubit gates will significantly improve the scaling fault-tolerant threshold over the nearest-neighbour linear array.

Flat bands play an important role in diffraction-free photonics and attract fundamental interest in many-body physics. Here we report the engineering of flat-band localization of collective excited states of atoms in Creutz superradiance lattices wit h tunable synthetic gauge fields. Magnitudes and phases of the lattice hopping coefficients can be independently tuned to control the state components of the flat band and the Aharonov-Bohm phases. We can selectively excite the flat band and control the flat-band localization with the synthetic gauge field. Our study provides a room-temperature platform for flat bands of atoms and holds promising applications in exploring correlated topological materials.
We propose a way to make arrays of optical frequency dipole-force microtraps for cold atoms above a dielectric substrate. Traps are nodes in the evanescent wave fields above an optical waveguide resulting from interference of different waveguide mode s. The traps have features sought in developing neutral atom based architectures for quantum computing: ~ 1 mW of laser power yields very tight traps 150 nm above a waveguide with trap vibrational frequencies ~ 1 MHz and vibrational ground state sizes ~ 10 nm. The arrays are scalable and allow addressing of individual sites for quantum logic operations.
We present a one-dimensional tight-binding chain of two-level systems coupled only through common dissipative Markovian reservoirs. This quantum chain can demonstrate anomalous thermodynamic behavior contradicting Fourier law. Population dynamics of individual systems of the chain is polynomial with the order determined by the initial state of the chain. The chain can simulate classically hard problems, such as multi-dimensional random walks.
