We study a quasiperiodic Su-Schrieffer-Heeger lattice with staggered on-site gain-loss. The results reveal that on-site staggered gain-loss can effectively induce non-Hermitian topological gap without introducing imaginary phase. Further…

Disorder and coherence jointly govern wave transport in complex media. In Hermitian systems, a long-established paradigm since Anderson's work holds that disorder-induced localization relies on phase-coherent interference, and that the loss…

Previous studies have established that quasiperiodic lattice models with unbounded potentials can exhibit localized and multifractal states, yet preclude the existence of extended states. In this work, we introduce a quasiperiodic system…

The localization is one of the active and fundamental research in topology physics. Based on a generalized Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model with the quasiperiodic non-Hermitian emerging at the off-diagonal location, we propose a novel systematic…

We find that quasiperiodicity-induced transitions between extended and localized phases in generic 1D systems are associated with hidden dualities that generalize the well-known duality of the Aubry-Andr\'e model. These spectral and…

The spectra of particles in disordered lattices can either be completely extended or localized or can be intermediate which hosts both the localized and extended states separated from each other. In this work, however, we show that in the…
