Towards Disorder-Induced Dynamics of Flatband States in Superconducting Circuits

The physics of strongly correlated many-body systems can be explored in systems with dispersionless energy bands: flat bands. Superconducting circuits provide a flexible architecture to simulate tight-binding Hamiltonians by placing qubits in specific geometries to generate photonic lattices; the non-linearity of qubits generate effective interactions for microwave photons in the lattice. In this talk, I present our recent progress towards generating a flat band state in a quasi-1D lattice made out of transmon qubits. By introducing disorder in the qubit energies, we study the dynamics and thermalization of flat bands.
