Abstract
Coherence is a major caveat in quantum computing. While phonons and electrons are weakly coupled in a glass, topological insulators strongly depend on the electron-phonon coupling. Knowledge of the electron−phonon interaction at conducting surfaces is relevant from a fundamental point of view as well as for various applications, such as two-dimensional and quasi-1D superconductivity in nanotechnology. Similarly, the electron−phonon interaction plays a relevant role in other transport properties e.g., thermoelectricity, low-dimensional systems as layered Bi and Sb chalcogenides, and quasi-crystalline materials. Glass-electrolyte ferroelectric energy storage cells exhibit self-charge and self-cycling related to topological superconductivity and electron-phonon coupling; phonon coherence is therefore important. By recurring to ab initio molecular dynamics, it was demonstrated the tendency of the Li3ClO, Li2.92Ba0.04ClO, Na3ClO, and Na2.92Ba0.04ClO ferroelectric-electrolytes to keep phonon oscillation coherence for a short lapse of time in ps. Double-well energy potentials were obtained while the electrolyte systems were thermostatted in a heat bath at a constant temperature. The latter occurrences indicate ferroelectric type behavior but do not justify the coherent self-oscillations observed in all types of cells containing these families of electrolytes and, therefore, an emergent type phenomenon where the full cell works as a feedback system allowing oscillations coherence must be realized. A comparison with amorphous SiO2 was performed and the specific heats for the various species were calculated.

Two very distinctive features are found when comparing the amorphous ferroelectric electrolytes and the amorphous Si3O6 AMD relaxation oscillations; while the first is dissipative and anharmonic (Figure 5), in the second the dissipation is not observed and the system keeps its focal energy point fairly well; no exponential dissipation envelop-type could be observed in Figure 8 for SiO2 at 1600 K
Summary
Statistical physics relates the average behavior of a physical system with its microscopic constituents and their interactions. Recent experiments with cold atoms have reached the interaction-dominated regime in quantum Ising magnets via optical coupling of trapped neutral atoms to Rydberg states [5]. Strong correlations in quantum Ising models have been observed in several experiments, starting from a single excitation in the superatom regime up to the point of crystallization. Rapid developments in this field make spin systems based on Rydberg atoms a promising platform to quantum simulation because of the unmatched flexibility and strength of interactions combined with high control and good isolation from the environment [7]
