Abstract

We investigate finite temperature properties in the half-filled three-component (colors) fermion systems. It is clarified that a color density-wave (CDW) state is more stable than a color-selective "antiferromagnetic" (CSAF) state against thermal fluctuations. The reentrant behavior in the phase boundary for the CSAF state is found. We also address the maximum critical temperature of the translational symmetry breaking states in the multicomponent fermionic systems.

Three-component Repulsive Fermionic Atoms in Optical Lattices at finite temperatures

Sei-ichiro Suga, Kensuke Inaba

We investigate finite-temperature properties of three-component (color) repulsive fermionic atoms in optical lattices at half filling using a self-energy functional approach. For a certain anisotropy of the interactions, we find a color density-wave (DW) state at low temperatures. In the weakly interacting region, the second-order phase transition from the color DW state to the Fermi-liquid state occurs with increasing temperature. In the strongly interacting region, by contrast, the first-order transition from the color DW state to a color selective Mott transition (CSMT) state or a Mott insulating state occurs. As the interaction increases above the critical temperatures, we observe a crossover from the CSMT state to the Mott insulating state.

Superfluid State of Repulsively Interacting Three-Component Fermionic Atoms in Optical Lattices

Kensuke Inaba, Sei-ichiro Suga

We investigate the superfluid state of repulsively interacting three-component (color) fermionic atoms in optical lattices. When the anisotropy of the three repulsive interactions is strong, atoms of two of the three colors form Cooper pairs and atoms of the third color remain a Fermi liquid. An effective attractive interaction is induced by density fluctuations of the third-color atoms. This superfluid state is stable against changes in filling close to half filling. We determine the phase diagrams in terms of temperature, filling, and the anisotropy of the repulsive interactions.

Three-component fermionic atoms with repulsive interaction in optical lattices

Shin-ya Miyatake, Kensuke Inaba, Sei-ichiro Suga

We investigate three-component (colors) repulsive fermionic atoms in optical lattices using the dynamical mean-field theory. Depending on the anisotropy of the repulsive interactions, either a color density-wave state or a color-selective staggered state appears at half filling. In the former state, pairs of atoms with two of the three colors and atoms with the third color occupy different sites alternately. In the latter state, atoms with two of the three colors occupy different sites alternately and atoms with the third color are itinerant throughout the system. When the interactions are isotropic, both states are degenerate. We discuss the results using an effective model.

Controlled pairing symmetry of the superfluid state in systems of three-component repulsive fermionic atoms in optical lattices

Sei-ichiro Suga

We investigate the pairing symmetry of the superfluid state in repulsively interacting three-component (color) fermionic atoms in optical lattices. When two of the three color-dependent repulsions are much stronger than the other, pairing symmetry is an extended $s$ wave, although the superfluid state appears adjacent to the paired Mott insulator in the phase diagram. On the other hand, when two of the three color-dependent repulsions are weaker than the other, pairing symmetry is a ${d}_{{x}^{2}\ensuremath{-}{y}^{2}}$ wave. This change in pairing symmetry is attributed to the change in the dominant quantum fluctuations from the density fluctuations of unpaired atoms and the color-density wave fluctuations to the color-selective antiferromagnet fluctuations. This phenomenon can be studied using existing experimental techniques.

Finite-temperature properties of attractive three-component fermionic atoms in optical lattices

Kensuke Inaba, Sei-ichiro Suga

We investigate the finite-temperature properties of attractive three-component (colors) fermionic atoms in optical lattices using a self-energy functional approach. As the strength of the attractive interaction increases in the low-temperature region, we observe a second-order transition from a Fermi liquid to a color superfluid (CSF), where atoms from two of the three colors form Cooper pairs. In the strong attractive region, we observe a first-order transition from a CSF to a trionic state, where three atoms with different colors form singlet bound states. A crossover between a Fermi liquid and a trionic state is observed in the high-temperature region. We present a phase diagram covering zero to finite temperatures. We demonstrate that the CSF transition temperature is enhanced by the anisotropy of the attractive interaction.

Mott transitions of three-component fermionic atoms with repulsive interaction in optical lattices

Kensuke Inaba, Shin-ya Miyatake, Sei-ichiro Suga

We investigate the Mott transitions of three-component (colors) repulsive fermionic atoms in optical lattices using the dynamical mean-field theory. We find that for SU(3) symmetry-breaking interactions, the Mott transition occurs at incommensurate half filling. As a result, a characteristic Mott insulating state appears, where paired atoms with two different colors and atoms with the third color are localized, and either of these states is randomly distributed in each site. We also find another Mott state, where atoms with two different colors are randomly localized at different sites, and atoms with the third color remain itinerant. We demonstrate that double occupancy measurements show characteristics of these exotic Mott phases.
