The extremal transmission of the acoustic wave near the Dirac point in two-dimensional (2D)
sonic crystals, being inversely proportional to the thickness of sample, has been …

Nanophononic Bloch oscillations and Wannier-Stark ladders have been recently predicted
to exist in specifically tailored structures formed by coupled nanocavities. Using pump-probe …

The problem of irreversible targeted energy transfer is approached in a new way using the
analogy between a system of two weakly coupled parametric pendulums or oscillators and …

The quantum evolution of a cloud of bosons initially localized on part of a one-dimensional
optical lattice and suddenly subjected to a linear ramp is studied, realizing a quantum …

We present an acoustic analog of the Landau–Zener-tunneling (LZT) quantum-mechanical
effect and apply it for irreversible wave redirection in weakly coupled nonlinear waveguides …

Defects in tight-binding lattices generally destroy the onset of Bloch oscillations (BOs) and
the periodic self-imaging of the wave packet due to the lack of an equally spaced Wannier …

We show that Shannon's information entropy provides a correct physical insight of
localization effects taking place in structured fields fashioned by eigenmodes upon …

We present a spectrum investigation of the behavior of dissociated polarons under high
electric fields in conjugated polymers. The study employs the Su-Schrieffer–Heeger model …

It is well known that an electron in a single-band tight-binding lattice coherently driven by an
external dc electric field undergoes Bloch oscillations. In the framework of the extended …

We present a novel type of an energy trap providing targeted energy transfer in a system of
weakly coupled pendulums. Our approach is based on the analogy we revealed between …
