One-dimensional all-bands-flat lattices are networks with all bands being flat and highly degenerate. They can always be diagonalized by a finite sequence of local unitary …

We propose a single-photon-by-single-photon all-optical switch concept based on interference-localized states on lattices and their delocalization by interaction. In its “open” …
In lattice models, destructive interference can lead to formation of localized states, which results in Bloch bands with a constant dispersion, called flat bands. Flat-band systems give a …
