Fractals are fascinating, not only for their aesthetic appeal but also for allowing the investigation of physical properties in non-integer dimensions. In these unconventional systems, many intrinsic features might come into play, including the fractal dimension and the fractal geometry. Despite abundant theoretical studies, experiments in fractal networks remain elusive. Here we experimentally investigate quantum transport in fractal networks by performing continuous-time quantum walks in…

It is suggested that amorphous or glassy materials may exhibit fractal properties at short length scales or, equivalently, at high energies, which can be used to test the fractal character of the vibrational excitations in these materials.

This work shows how arrays of artificial atoms can be defined by controlled positioning of CO molecules on a Cu (111) surface2–4, and how these sites couple to form electronic Sierpiński fractals, which are artificially created by atomic manipulation in a scanning tunnelling microscope.

It is demonstrated theoretically and experimentally that in ordered time-independent -symmetric systems, which are symmetric under space-time reflection, wave transport can undergo a sudden change from ballistic to diffusive after a specific point in time and this transition depends only on the degree of dissipation.
