“…Later on, Bloch oscillations were shown to occur in different periodic systems such as ultracold atoms [7,8], Bose-Einstein condensates in optical lattices [9,10], waveguide arrays [11][12][13], optically induced lattices [14,15], acoustical waves [16] and plasmonic systems [17]. Among the various physical settings, optical systems offer direct visualization of Bloch oscillations [7,10,11,18] and Landau-Zener tunneling [19][20][21][22] both theoretically and experimentally. For example, Bloch oscillations with Landau-Zener tunneling can be used to construct matter-wave beam splitters and Mach-Zehender interferometer [23].…”
