Energy eigenstates of Eq. (1) with the parameter definition of Eq. (2) (left panels) and Eq. (3) (right panels) for 1000 trapped ions and χ = ( 1 + 5 ) / 2 . (a) ω = 5.1 C , (b) ω = 5.1 C , (c) ω = 9.5 C and (d) ω = 9.5 C . The color bar indicates the magnitude of the IPR. The black solid line in each panel is the mobility edge obtained from Eq. (3).
