This article aims to study the existence of stable Bloch oscillations and Landau-Zener tunneling in a non-Hermitian system when exposed to external fields. We investigate a non-Hermitian PT-symmetric diamond chain network and its transport dynamics in two different situations, namely in a flat-band case and a non-flat-band case. The considered system does not support an unbroken-PT phase or completely real eigenspectra in any of the parametric regions in both the flat- and non-flat-band cases. In the flat-band case, up to a critical value of the gain-loss parameter, the bands are found to be gapless or inseparable, and for other values the bands are isolated. Considering the non-flat-band case, all the bands are found to be complex dispersive and are also isolated. In the case of a completely broken PT phase, we look at the possibility of having stable dynamics or Bloch oscillations upon the application of external fields like a synthetic electric field. In particular, when the complex bands are isolated, we point out that the Landau-Zener tunneling induced by the synthetic electric field can enable Bloch oscillations. The amplitude of these Bloch oscillations is large and persists for a long propagation distance, which reveals that super Bloch oscillations can be observed in the broken PT phase of the system. We also report the amplified Bloch oscillations, which pave the way toward controlling transport phenomena in non-Hermitian systems.

非HermitianPT对称平带晶格中的稳定Bloch振荡和Landau-Zener隧穿

本文旨在研究非Hermitian系统中暴露于外部电场时稳定Bloch振荡和Landau-Zener隧道的存在。我们调查非赫米特语PT对称金刚石链网络及其在两种不同情况下的传输动力学,即在平带情况下和非平带情况下。考虑的系统不支持不间断的-PT平带和非平带情况下任何参数区域中的相位或完全实特征谱。在平坦频带的情况下,直到增益损耗参数的临界值,频带都是无间隙的或不可分割的,而对于其他值,频带是隔离的。考虑到非平坦频带的情况,发现所有频带都是复杂的色散并且也被隔离。在完全破裂的情况下PT阶段,我们研究在施加诸如合成电场之类的外部电场时具有稳定动力学或Bloch振荡的可能性。特别是,当隔离复杂的谱带时,我们指出由合成电场引起的Landau-Zener隧穿能够实现布洛赫振荡。这些Bloch振荡的振幅很大,并且持续了很长的传播距离,这表明可以在断裂中观察到超Bloch振荡。PT系统阶段。我们还报告了放大的布洛赫振荡,这为控制非埃尔米特系统中的传输现象铺平了道路。
