Thermal avalanches in a quasiperiodic XXZ model
Paolo Molignini, Antonio Štrkalj
We study bath-induced thermalization in the many-body localized XXZ spin chain subjected to a quasiperiodic magnetic field. We engineer a thermal inclusion by setting the field str…
Quantum Beats in Many-Body Localized Systems
Bernard Faulend, Hrvoje Buljan, Antonio Štrkalj
Slow particle dynamics observed numerically even deep inside the many-body localized (MBL) regime has called the stability of MBL in the thermodynamic limit into question, and its…
A resonant valence bond spin liquid in the dilute limit of doped frustrated Mott insulators
Cecilie Glittum, Antonio Štrkalj, Dharmalingam Prabhakaran +3
Ideas about resonant valence bond liquids and spin-charge separation have led to key concepts in physics such as quantum spin liquids, emergent gauge symmetries, topological order,…
Electron-optics using negative refraction in two-dimensional inverted-band junctions
Yuhao Zhao, Anina Leuch, Oded Zilberberg +1
Electron optics deals with condensed matter platforms for manipulating and guiding electron beams with high efficiency and robustness. Common devices rely on the spatial confinemen…
Tomasch Oscillations as Above-Gap Signature of Topological Superconductivity
Antonio Štrkalj, Xi-Rong Chen, Wei Chen +2
The identification of topological superconductors usually involves searching for in-gap modes that are protected by topology. However, in the current experimental settings, the smo…
Emergence of quasiperiodic behavior in transport and hybridization properties of clean lattice systems
Cecilie Glittum, Antonio Štrkalj, Claudio Castelnovo
Quasiperiodic behaviour is known to occur in systems with enforced quasiperiodicity or randomness, in either the lattice structure or the potential, as well as in periodically driv…
Coexistence of localization and transport in many-body two-dimensional Aubry-André models
Antonio Štrkalj, Elmer V. H. Doggen, Claudio Castelnovo
Whether disordered and quasiperiodic many-body quantum systems host a long-lived localized phase in the thermodynamic limit has been the subject of intense recent debate. While in…
Many-body localization in the interpolating Aubry-André-Fibonacci model
Antonio Štrkalj, Elmer V. H. Doggen, Igor V. Gornyi +1
We investigate the localization properties of a spin chain with an antiferromagnetic nearest-neighbour coupling, subject to an external quasiperiodic on-site magnetic field. The qu…
A Luttinger Liquid coupled to Ohmic-class environments
Andisheh Khedri, Antonio Štrkalj, Alessio Chiocchetta +1
We investigate the impact of an Ohmic-class environment on the conduction and correlation properties of one-dimensional interacting systems. Interestingly, we reveal that inter-par…
Emergence of criticality through a cascade of delocalization transitions in quasiperiodic chains
V. Goblot, A. Štrkalj, N. Pernet +10
Conduction through materials crucially depends on how ordered they are. Periodically ordered systems exhibit extended Bloch waves that generate metallic bands, whereas disorder is…
Electron-Hole Interference in an Inverted-Band Semiconductor Bilayer
Matija Karalic, Antonio Štrkalj, Michele Masseroni +7
Electron optics in the solid state promises new functionality in electronics through the possibility of realizing micrometer-sized interferometers, lenses, collimators and beam spl…
Tunneling into a finite Luttinger liquid coupled to noisy capacitive leads
Antonio Štrkalj, Michael S. Ferguson, Tobias M. R. Wolf +2
Tunneling spectroscopy of one-dimensional interacting wires can be profoundly sensitive to the boundary conditions of the wire. Here, we analyze the tunneling spectroscopy of a wir…
