Localization transitions and mobility edges in quasiperiodic ladder.

We investigate localization properties of two-coupled uniform chains (ladder) with quasiperiodic modulation on interchain coupling strength. We demonstrate that this ladder is equivalent to two Aubry-André chains when two legs are symmetric. Analytical and numerical results indicate the appearance of mobility edges in asymmetric ladder systems. We propose an easy-to-engineer quasiperiodic Moiré superlattice ladder system comprising two-coupled uniform chains. An irrational lattice constant difference results in a quasiperiodic structure. Numerical simulations indicate that such a system supports the existence of mobility edges. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the mobility edges can be detected through a dynamical method, that is based on the measurement of survival probability in the presence of a single imaginary negative potential. The results provide insights into localization transitions and mobility edges in experiments.
