Topological and Transport Dynamics of the Golden Mean Vogel Array: A Tight-Binding Analysis

Open access0 citations

Abstract

Building upon the continuous momentum space observations of metallic mean Vogel arrays, this report investigates the quantum mechanical properties of the Golden Ratio (m=1) substrate. Using a tight-binding Hamiltonian model with exponentially decaying hopping integrals, we analyze the energy spectrum, state localization, defect tolerance, and quantum diffusion dynamics of this deterministic aperiodic lattice.
