The intricate relationship between topology and disorder in non-equilibrium quantum systems presents a captivating avenue for exploring localization phenomenon. Here, we look for a suitable platform that enables an in-depth investigation of the topic. To this end, we delve into the nuanced analysis of the topological and localization characteristics exhibited by a one-dimensional dimerized Kitaev chain under periodic driving and perform detailed analyses of the Floquet Majorana modes.

Relaxation dynamics of complex many-body quantum systems trapped into metastable states is a very active field of research from both the theoretical and experimental point of view with implications in a wide array of topics from macroscopic quantum tunnelling and nucleosynthesis to non-equilibrium superconductivity and energy-efficient memory devices. In this work, we investigate quantum domain reconfiguration dynamics in the electronic superlattice of a quantum material using time-resolved scanning tunneling microscopy and unveil a crossover from temperature to noisy quantum fluctuation dominated dynamics. The process is modeled using a programmable superconducting quantum annealer in which qubit interconnections correspond directly to the microscopic interactions between electrons in the quantum material.

Spin-LEDs have been a central topic in semiconductor spintronics research and represent a promising avenue for advanced optoelectronic devices and applications. The future advancements of spin-LEDs will undoubtedly hinge on the generation and manipulation of spin-polarized population at room temperature. In this research, we elucidate the development of room-temperature spin-LEDs using quasi-2D perovskites, based on the chiral-induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect.

Molecular machines, which operate in highly fluctuating environments far from equilibrium, may benefit from their non-equilibrium environments. It is, however, a topic of controversy how the efficiency of the microscopic engines can be enhanced. Recent experiments showed that microscopic Stirling engines in bacterial reservoirs could show high performance beyond the equilibrium thermodynamics.

Polymer translocation is a fundamental topic in non-equilibrium physics and is crucially important to many biological processes in life. In the present work, we adopt two-dimensional Langevin dynamics simulations to study the forced and spontaneous translocation dynamics of an active filament. The influence of polymer stiffness on the underlying dynamics is explicitly analyzed.
