Flat bands–single-particle energy bands–in tight-binding lattices, aka networks, have
attracted attention due to the presence of macroscopic degeneracies and their sensitivity to …

Synthetic dimensions, wherein dynamics occurs in a set of internal states, have found great
success in recent years in exploring topological effects in cold atoms and photonics …

The Quantum Instrumentation Control Kit (QICK) is a standalone open-source qubit
controller that was first introduced in 2022. In this follow-up work, we present recent …

Transport measurements are fundamental for understanding condensed matter phenomena,
from superconductivity to the fractional quantum Hall effect. Analogously, they can be …

We show that lasing in flat-band lattices can be stabilized by means of the geometrical
properties of the Bloch states, in settings where the single-particle dispersion is flat in both …

We investigate the influence of quasiperiodic modulations on one-dimensional non-
Hermitian diamond lattices with an artificial magnetic flux θ that possess flat bands. Our …

A unique feature of non-Hermitian systems is the extreme sensitivity of the eigenspectrum to
boundary conditions with the emergence of the non-Hermitian skin effect (NHSE). A NHSE …

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” …

Strongly correlated materials feature multiple electronic orbitals which are crucial to
accurately understand their many-body properties, from cuprate materials to twisted bilayer …
