• Authors: Xi Liu, Senmao Tan, Qing-hai Wang, Longwen Zhou, and Jiangbin Gong
• Abstract summary: This work provides a convenient and powerful means towards the engineering of Floquet bands via Bloch oscillations. The added linear field not only restricts the spreading of a time-evolving wavepacket but also, depending on the ratio between the Bloch oscillation frequency and the modulation frequency of the periodic driving, dramatically modifies the band profile and topology.

• Abstract: This work provides a convenient and powerful means towards the engineering of Floquet bands via Bloch oscillations, by adding a tilted linear potential to periodically driven lattice systems. The added linear field not only restricts the spreading of a time-evolving wavepacket but also, depending on the ratio between the Bloch oscillation frequency and the modulation frequency of the periodic driving, dramatically modifies the band profile and topology. Specifically, we consider a driven Aubry-Andr\'e-Harper model as a working example, in the presence of a linear field. Almost flat Floquet bands or Floquet bands with large Chern numbers due to the interplay between the periodic driving and Bloch oscillations can be obtained, with the band structure and topology extensively tunable by adjusting the ratio of two competing frequencies. To confirm our finding, we further execute the Thouless pumping of one and two interacting bosons in such a lattice system and establish its connection with the topological properties of single- and two-particle Floquet bands.

  A new type of frequency comb-Floquet cavity frequency comb does not rely on intrinsic non-linearity. We implement this on a microwave cavity optomechanical system on-chip. Compared to Kerr optomechanical combs, this approach efficiently generates comb with pump signal far from the cavity's intrinsic frequency.

  We consider a one-dimensional spin-1/2 lattice with periodically modulated bonds using parametric resonances. The stroboscopic dynamics generated from distributed bond modulations lead to pair correlation between spins. We present a protocol allowing the control of local spin-correlated pairs driven by one-period evolution operators.

  We study the manipulation of Majorana zero modes in a thin disk made from a $p$-wave superconductor. We analyze the second-order topological corner modes that arise when an in-plane magnetic field is applied. We show that oscillations persist even in the adiabatic phase because of a frequency independent coupling between zero modes and excited states.

  We show that the Zitterbewegung effect manifests itself as a series of quantum beats of the particle density in the long-time limit. We also find a time-domain where the particle density of the point source is governed by the propagation of a main wavefront. The relative positions of these wavefronts are used to investigate the time-delay of quantum waves in the Klein-tunneling regime.
