Bloch–Zener Oscillations in Graphene and Topological Insulators
We show that superlattices based on zero-gap semiconductors such as graphene and mercury telluride exhibit characteristic Bloch–Zener oscillations that emerge from the coherent superposition of Bloch oscillations and multiple Zener tunneling between the electron and hole branch. We demonstrate this mechanism by means of wave packet dynamics in various spatially periodically modulated nanoribbon...
متن کاملDynamics of Bloch oscillations
We study the dynamics of Bloch oscillations in a one-dimensional periodic potential plus a (relatively weak) static force. The tight-binding and single-band approximations are analysed in detail, and also in a classicalized version. A number of numerically exact results obtained from wavepacket propagation are analysed and interpreted in terms of the tight-binding and single-band model, both in...
متن کاملBloch oscillations at room temperature.
We report on the observation of coherent electronic wave-packet oscillations in a semiconductor heterostructure at room temperature. Bloch oscillations are excited in a wide-miniband GaAs/Al0.3GaO.7As superlattice by femtosecond laser pulses. Several cycles of the coherent electronic motion are observed within the dephasing time of the intraband polarization. The frequency can be tuned by the a...
متن کاملBloch - Zener oscillations 3 algebraic
Abstract. It is well known that a particle in a periodic potential with an additional constant force performs Bloch oscillations. Modulating every second period of the potential, the original Bloch band splits into two subbands. The dynamics of quantum particles shows a coherent superposition of Bloch oscillations and Zener tunneling between the subbands, a Bloch-Zener oscillation. Such a syste...
متن کاملManipulation of matter waves using Bloch and Bloch–Zener oscillations
We present theoretical and numerical results on the dynamics of ultracold atoms in an accelerated singleand double-periodic optical lattice. In the single-periodic potential Bloch oscillations can be used to generate fast directed transport with very little dispersion. The dynamics in the double-periodic system is dominated by Bloch–Zener oscillations, i.e. the interplay of Bloch oscillations a...
