Non-perturbative dynamics of flat-band systems with correlated disorder

We develop a numerical method for the time evolution of Gaussian wave packets on flat-band lattices in the presence of correlated disorder.To achieve this,we introduce a method to generate random on-site energies with prescribed correlations.We verify this method with a one-dimensional(1D)cross-stitch model,and find good agreement with analytical results obtained from the disorder-dressed evolution equations.This allows us to reproduce previous findings,that disorder can mobilize 1D flat-band states which would otherwise remain localized.As explained by the corresponding disorder-dressed evolution equations,such mobilization requires an asymmetric disorder-induced coupling to dispersive bands,a condition that is generically not fulfilled when the flat-band is resonant with the dispersive bands at a Dirac point-like crossing.We exemplify this with the 1D Lieb lattice.While analytical expressions are not available for the two-dimensional(2D)system due to its complexity,we extend the numerical method to the 2D α-T3 model,and find that the initial flat-band wave packet preserves its localization when α=0,regardless of disorder and intersections.However,when α≠0,the wave packet shifts in real space.We interpret this as a Berry phase controlled,disorder-induced wave-packet mobilization.In addition,we present density functional theory calculations of candidate materials,specifically Hg1-xCdxTe.The flat-band emerges near the Г point(k=0)in the Brillouin zone.
