Boundary-induced topological transition in an open SSH model
Alexei Bissonnette, Nicolas Delnour, Andrew Mckenna +3
We consider a Su-Schrieffer-Heeger chain to which we attach a semi-infinite undimerized chain (lead) to both ends. We study the effect of the openness of the SSH model on its prope…
Scanning qubit probe of edge states in a topological insulator
Nicolas Delnour, Alexei Bissonnette, Hichem Eleuch +2
In this work, we propose a novel qubit-based sensor with the ability to characterize topological edge states in low-dimensional systems. A composite system is studied, consisting o…
Qubits as edge state detectors: illustration using the SSH model
Meri Zaimi, Christian Boudreault, Nouédyn Baspin +3
As is well known, qubits are the fundamental building blocks of quantum computers, and more generally, of quantum information. A major challenge in the development of quantum devic…
Detecting topological edge states with the dynamics of a qubit
Meri Zaimi, Christian Boudreault, Nouédyn Baspin +4
We consider the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) chain, which has 0, 1, or 2 topological edge states depending on the ratio of the hopping parameters and the parity of the chain length.…
Probing Anderson Localization using the Dynamics of a Qubit
Hichem Eleuch, Michael Hilke, Richard MacKenzie
Anderson localization is a consequence of coherent interference of multiple scattering events in the presence of disorder, which leads to an exponential suppression of the transmis…
