# Quantum synchronization in dimer atomic lattices

## TL;DR

This paper demonstrates quantum synchronization in a lattice of trapped atoms with local dissipation, highlighting the roles of inhomogeneous losses and spin detuning in enabling synchronized atomic behavior.

## Contribution

It introduces a dissipative spin model with a dimer lattice of atoms, showing quantum synchronization driven by local dissipation and inhomogeneity, a novel mechanism in quantum systems.

## Key findings

- Synchronization occurs due to inhomogeneous local losses.
- Increasing spin detuning enhances synchronization.
- Different measures reveal distinct synchronization regimes.

## Abstract

Synchronization phenomena have been recently reported in the quantum realm at atomic level due to collective dissipation. In this work we propose a dimer lattice of trapped atoms realizing a dissipative spin model where quantum synchronization occurs instead in presence of local dissipation. Atoms synchronization is enabled by the inhomogeneity of staggered local losses in the lattice and is favored by an increase of spins detuning. A comprehensive approach to quantum synchronization based on different measures considered in the literature allows to identify the main features of different synchronization regimes.
