contents We investigate a single-particle in one-dimensional Wannier-Stark ladders with either a linear potential or a mosaic potential with spacing $κ=2$. In both cases, we exactly determine the critical energies separating the weakly ergodic states from ergodic states for a finite potential height. Especially in the latter case, we demonstrate a rich phase diagram with ergodic states, weakly ergodic states, and strongly Wannier-Stark localized states. Our results also exhibit that critical energies are highly dependent on the height of the ladder and ergodic states only survive at $E\approx0$ for the high ladder. Importantly, we find that the number of ergodic states can be adjusted by changing the interval of the non-zero potential. These interesting features will shed light on the study of disorder-free systems.
