Experimental Proposal on Non-Hermitian Skin Effect by Two-dimensional Quantum Walk with a Single Trapped Ion

Non-Hermitian Hamiltonians are widely used in describing open systems with gain and loss,among which a key phenomenon is the non-Hermitian skin effect.Here we report an experimental scheme to realize a two-dimensional(2D)discrete-time quantum walk with non-Hermitian skin effect in a single trapped ion.It is shown that the coin and 2D walker states can be labeled in the spin of the ion and the coherent-state lattice of the ion motion,respectively.We numerically observe a directional bulk flow,whose orientations are controlled by dissipative parameters,showing the emergence of the non-Hermitian skin effect.We then discuss an experimental implementation of our scheme in a laser-controlled trapped Ca+ion.Our experimental proposal may be applicable to research of dissipative quantum walk systems and may be able to generalize to other platforms,such as superconducting circuits and atoms in cavity.
