Phase-controlled localization and directed transport in a bipartite lattice

arXiv:1307.0176 · doi:10.1364/OE.22.004277

Abstract

We investigate coherent control of single particles held in a bipartite optical lattice via a combined high-frequency modulation. Our analytical results show that for the photon resonance case the quantum tunneling and dynamical localization depend on the phase difference between the modulation components, which leads to a different route of the coherent destruction of tunneling and a simple method for stabilizing the system to implement the directed transport. The results could be referable for manipulating the transport characterization of the similar tilted and shaken optical or solid-state systems, and also can be extended to the many-particle systems.
