Trapping a particle of a quantum walk on the line

Quantum Physics 2015-03-19 v1

Abstract

We observe that changing a phase at a single point in a discrete quantum walk results in a rather surprising localization effect. For certain values of this phase change the possibility of localization strongly depends on the internal coin-state of the walker.
