Abstract

In a recent Letter [S. Ganeshan, E. Barnes, and S. Das Sarma, Phys. Rev. Lett. 111, 130405 (2013)], Ganeshan et al. present a general framework to classify the resonance structure of Landau-Majorana-Stuckelberg-Zener interferometry into three basic categories distinguished by whether these resonances correspond to periodic or nonperiodic quantum evolution. In this Comment, we show that their identification of the real resonances in the regime of small drive amplitude is incorrect.

Exact Classification of Landau-Majorana-Stückelberg-Zener Resonances by Floquet Determinants

Sriram Ganeshan, Edwin Barnes, S. Das Sarma

Recent experiments have shown that Landau-Majorana-Stückelberg-Zener (LMSZ) interferometry is a powerful tool for demonstrating and exploiting quantum coherence not only in atomic systems but also in a variety of solid state quantum systems such as spins in quantum dots, superconducting qubits, and nitrogen vacancy centers in diamond. In this Letter, we propose and develop a general (and, in principle, exact) theoretical formalism to identify and characterize the interference resonances that are the hallmark of LMSZ interferometry. Unlike earlier approaches, our scheme does not require any approximations, allowing us to uncover important and previously unknown features of the resonance structure. We also discuss the experimental observability of our results.

Comment on “Feshbach resonances in an optical lattice”

Roberto B. Diener, Tin-Lun Ho

We point out some logical inconsistencies in the model proposed in [Phys. Rev. A 71, 043604 (2005)] as well as in the calculations performed on it. The proposed model is not able to describe Feshbach resonances in optical lattices.

Floquet mobility edges and transport in a periodically driven generalized Aubry-André model

Jayashis Das, Vatsana Tiwari, Manish Kumar +1 more

We investigate the effect of a periodic electric field drive on the generalized Aubry-André model, also known as the Ganeshan-Pixley-Das Sarma (GPD) model, which is well known as a host of mobility edges. Our study of the Floquet spectrum of the driven GPD model uncovers the emergence of two distinct Floquet mobility edges, a delocalized--localized (DL) edge in the bounded regime, and a multifractal--localized (ML) edge in the unbounded regime. Using analytical results derived from Avila's global theory applied to the high frequency effective Hamiltonian, together with numerical diagnostics such as the fractal dimension and inverse participation ratio, we demonstrate that these mobility edges can be effectively controlled by the amplitude and frequency of the electric field drive. We also identify drive-induced localization at specific values of the driving parameters, corresponding to dynamical localization points in the absence of quasiperiodic potential. Furthermore, the dynamical study of the periodically driven GPD model demonstrates superdiffusive to almost ballistic transport in the bounded regime corresponding to the DL edges, whereas subdiffusive transport is observed in the unbounded regime associated with the ML edges. We also analyze deviations from the high-frequency effective description by explicitly examining the low-frequency driving regime, where significant and counterintuitive deviations in both spectral properties and transport behavior are observed. Our study highlights the interplay of a quasiperiodic potential and a periodically varying electric field drive as a powerful mechanism to engineer mobility edges and control transport in systems with rich spectral features.

Landau-Zener-Stückelberg interferometry in dissipative circuit quantum electrodynamics

Mariano Bonifacio, Daniel Domı́nguez, María José Sánchez

We study Landau-Zener-St\"uckelberg (LZS) interferometry in a cQED architecture under the effects of dissipation. To be specific, we consider a superconducting qubit driven by a $\mathrm{dc}+\mathrm{ac}$ signal and coupled to a transmission line resonator, but our results are valid for general qubit-resonators devices. To take the environment into account, we assume that the resonator is coupled to an Ohmic quantum bath. The Floquet-Born-Markov master equation is numerically solved to obtain the dynamics of the system for an arbitrary amplitude of the drive and different timescales. We unveil important differences in the resonant patterns between the strong coupling and ultrastrong coupling regimes in the qubit-resonator interaction, which are mainly due to the magnitude of photonic gaps in the energy spectrum of the system. We identify in the LZS patterns the contribution of the qubit gap and the photonic gaps, showing that for large driving amplitudes the patterns present a weaving structure due to the combined intercrossing of the different gaps contributions.
