Bose-Einstein condensate in weak 3d isotropic speckle disorder

B. Abdullaev, Axel Pelster

The effect of a weak three-dimensional (3d) isotropic laser speckle disorder on various thermodynamic properties of a dilute Bose gas is considered at zero temperature. First, we summarize the derivation of the autocorrelation function of laser speckles in 1d and 2d following the seminal work of Goodman. The goal of this discussion is to show that a Gaussian approximation of this function, proposed in some recent papers, is inconsistent with the general background of laser speckle theory. Then we propose a possible experimental realization for an isotropic 3d laser speckle potential and derive its corresponding autocorrelation function. Using a Fourier transform of that function, we calculate both condensate depletion and sound velocity of a Bose- Einstein condensate as disorder ensemble averages of such a weak laser speckle potential within a perturbative solution of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation. By doing so, we reproduce the expression of the normalfluid density obtained earlier within the treatment of Landau. This physically transparent derivation shows that condensate particles, which are scattered by disorder, form a gas of quasiparticles which is responsible for the normalfluid component.

Experiments on the 3D Disordered Bose-Hubbard Model

An optical speckle field is used to add fine-grained disorder to a 3D optical lattice. We have begun to constrain the disordered Bose-Hubbard phase diagram by studying Bose-Einstein condensates in a disordered lattice.

Dipolar Bose gas in a weak isotropic speckle disorder

Abdelâali Boudjemâa

We investigate the properties of a homogeneous dipolar Bose gas in a weak three-dimensional isotropic speckle disorder at finite temperatures. By using the Bogoliubov theory (beyond the mean field), we calculate the condensate and the superfluid fractions as a function of density and strengths of disorder and interaction. The disorder impact on the anomalous density, the chemical potential, and the ground-state energy is also analyzed. We show that the peculiar interplay of the dipole-dipole interaction and weak disorder makes the superfluid fraction and sound velocity anisotropic.
