Trapped-ion quantum simulation of excitation transport: Disordered, noisy, and long-range connected quantum networks
Trapped-ion quantum simulation of excitation transport: Disordered, noisy, and long-range connected quantum networks
The transport of excitations governs fundamental properties of matter. Particularly rich physics emerges in the interplay between disorder and environmental noise, even in small systems such as photosynthetic biomolecules. Counterintuitively, noise can enhance coherent quantum transport, which has been proposed as a mechanism behind the high transport efficiencies observed in …
