Abstract

We have shown that the critical temperature of a Bose-Einstein condensate to a normal phase transition of noninteracting bosons in cubic optical lattices has a linear dependence on the filling factor, especially at large densities. The condensed fraction exhibits a linear power law dependence on temperature in contrast to the case of ideal homogeneous Bose gases.

Thermodynamics of noninteracting bosonic gases in cubic optical lattices versus ideal homogeneous Bose gases

Abdulla Rakhimov, I. N. Askerzade

We have studied the thermodynamic properties of noninteracting gases in periodic lattice potential at arbitrary integer fillings and compared them with that of ideal homogeneous gases. By deriving explicit expressions for the thermodynamic quantities and performing exact numerical calculations, we have found that the dependence of e.g., entropy and energy on the temperature in the normal phase is rather weak especially at large filling factors. In the Bose condensed phase, their power dependence on the reduced temperature is nearly linear, which is in contrast to that of ideal homogeneous gases. We evaluated the discontinuity in the slope of the specific heat which turned out to be approximately the same as that of the ideal homogeneous Bose (IHB) gas for filling factor ν = 1. The discontinuity i.e. the jump in the heat capacity per particle linearly decreases with increasing ν. These results may serve as a checkpoint for various experiments on optical lattices as well as theoretical studies of weakly interacting Bose systems in periodic potentials being a starting point for perturbative calculations.

Critical Temperature of Bose-Einstein condensation of hard sphere gases

Franck Laloë, David M. Ceperley, P. Grüter

We determine the critical temperature of hard-sphere Bosons in a cubic box by path-integral Monte Carlo simulations and finite-size scaling. We obtain an enhancement compared to the ideal gas at low densities in the form of a power law in density with exponent $1/3$. At high densities the result for liquid helium, namely a lower critical temperature than in the non-interacting case, is recovered. We give a microscopic explanation for the observed behavior.

Bose–Einstein condensation temperature of weakly interacting atoms

Vyacheslav I. Yukalov, Elizaveta P. Yukalova

Abstract The critical temperature of Bose–Einstein condensation essentially depends on internal properties of the system as well as on the geometry of a trapping potential. The peculiarities of defining the phase transition temperature of Bose–Einstein condensation for different systems are reviewed, including homogenous Bose gas, trapped Bose atoms, and bosons in optical lattices. The method of self-similar approximants, convenient for calculating critical temperature, is briefly delineated.

Critical Temperature of Interacting Bose Gases in Periodic Potentials

Toan T. Nguyen, A. Herrmann, Matthias Troyer +1 more

The superfluid transition of a repulsive Bose gas in the presence of a sinusoidal potential which represents a simple-cubic optical lattice is investigated using quantum Monte Carlo simulations. At the average filling of one particle per well the critical temperature has a nonmonotonic dependence on the interaction strength, with an initial sharp increase and a rapid suppression at strong interactions in the vicinity of the Mott transition. In an optical lattice the positive shift of the transition is strongly enhanced compared to the homogenous gas. By varying the lattice filling we find a crossover from a regime where the optical lattice has the dominant effect to a regime where interactions dominate and the presence of the lattice potential becomes almost irrelevant.

Bose-Einstein condensation in tight-binding bands

R. Ramakumar, A. N. Das

We present a theoretical study of the condensation of bosons in tight-binding bands corresponding to simple cubic, body-centered cubic, and face-centered cubic lattices. We have analyzed noninteracting bosons, weakly interacting bosons using the Bogoliubov method, and strongly interacting bosons through a renormalized Hamiltonian approach valid for the number of bosons per site less than or equal to unity. In all the cases studied, we find that bosons in a body-centered cubic lattice have the highest Bose condensation temperature. The growth of the condensate fraction of noninteracting bosons is found to be very close to that of free bosons. The interaction partially depletes the condensate at zero temperature and close to it, while enhancing it beyond this range below the Bose-Einstein condensation temperature. Strong interaction enhances the boson effective mass as the band-filling is increased and eventually localizes the bosons to form a Bose-Mott-Hubbard insulator for integer filling.

Bose-Einstein condensation of photons in an ideal atomic gas

Alexander Kruchkov, Yu. V. Slyusarenko

We study peculiarities of Bose-Einstein condensation of photons that are in thermodynamic equilibrium with atoms of noninteracting gases. General equations of the thermodynamic equilibrium of the system under study are obtained. We examine solutions of these equations in the case of high temperatures, when the atomic components of the system can be considered as nondegenerated ideal gases of atoms, and the photonic component can form a state with the Bose condensate. Transcendental equation for transition temperature and expression for the density of condensed photons in the considered system are derived. We also obtain analytical solutions of the equation for the critical temperature in a number of particular cases. The existence of two regimes of Bose condensation of photons, which differ significantly in nature of transition temperature dependence on the total density of photons pumped into the system, is revealed. In one case, this dependence is a traditional fractional-power law, and in another one it is the logarithmic law. Applying numerical methods, we determine boundaries of existence and implementation conditions for different regimes of condensation depending on the physical parameters of the system under study. We also show that for a large range of physical systems that are in equilibrium with photons (from ultracold gases of alkali metals to certain types of ideal plasma), the condensation of photons should occur according to the logarithmic regime.
