Bloch oscillation
text:
Bloch oscillation is a phenomenon from solid state physics. It describes the oscillation of a particle confined in a periodic potential when a constant force is acting on it.
It was first pointed out by Felix Bloch and Clarence Zener while studying the electrical properties of crystals. In particular, they predicted that the motion of electrons in a perfect crystal under the action of a constant electric field would be oscillatory instead of uniform. While in natural crystals this phenomenon is
