Engineering a Flux-Dependent Mobility Edge in Disordered Zigzag Chains
There has been great interest in realizing quantum simulators of charged particles in artificial gauge fields. Here, we perform the first quantum simulation explorations of the combination of artificial gauge fields and disorder. Using synthetic lattice techniques based on parametrically-coupled atomic momentum states, we engineer zigzag chains with a tunable …
