Abstract

We compute physical properties across the phase diagram of the $t\ensuremath{-}{J}_{\ensuremath{\perp}}$ chain with long-range dipolar interactions, which describe ultracold polar molecules on optical lattices. Our results obtained by the density-matrix renormalization group indicate that superconductivity is enhanced when the Ising component ${J}_{z}$ of the spin-spin interaction and the charge component $V$ are tuned to zero and even further by the long-range dipolar interactions. At low densities, a substantially larger spin gap is obtained. We provide evidence that long-range interactions lead to algebraically decaying correlation functions despite the presence of a gap. Although this has recently been observed in other long-range interacting spin and fermion models, the correlations in our case have the peculiar property of having a small and continuously varying exponent. We construct simple analytic models and arguments to understand the most salient features.

Tunable Superfluidity and Quantum Magnetism with Ultracold Polar Molecules

Alexey Vyacheslavovich Gorshkov, Salvatore R. Manmana, Gang Chen +4 more

By selecting two dressed rotational states of ultracold polar molecules in an optical lattice, we obtain a highly tunable generalization of the $t\mathrm{\text{\ensuremath{-}}}J$ model, which we refer to as the $t\mathrm{\text{\ensuremath{-}}}J\mathrm{\text{\ensuremath{-}}}V\mathrm{\text{\ensuremath{-}}}W$ model. In addition to $XXZ$ spin exchange, the model features density-density interactions and density-spin interactions; all interactions are dipolar. We show that full control of all interaction parameters in both magnitude and sign can be achieved independently of each other and of the tunneling. As a first step towards demonstrating the potential of the system, we apply the density matrix renormalization group method to obtain the 1D phase diagram of the simplest experimentally realizable case. Specifically, we show that the tunability and the long-range nature of the interactions in the $t\mathrm{\text{\ensuremath{-}}}J\mathrm{\text{\ensuremath{-}}}V\mathrm{\text{\ensuremath{-}}}W$ model enable enhanced superfluidity. Finally, we show that Bloch oscillations in a tilted lattice can be used to probe the phase diagram experimentally.

Phase diagram of the one-dimensional t-J model with long-range dipolar interactions

Chen Cheng, Bin-Bin Mao, Fuzhou Chen +1 more

We study systematically the effect of long-range dipolar interactions on the ground-state phase diagram of the one-dimensional model by means of the density matrix renormalization group. While the basic phases described by the Luttinger parameter , namely, the repulsive Luttinger liquid (metallic phase, ), attractive Luttinger liquid (superconducting phase, ), and the phase separation , are similar to those of the conventional model, the presence of the long-range dipolar interactions leads to significant differences. i) At high-density regime, the phase boundaries of these three phases are even pushed to the large- J region; ii) at low-density regime, these phase boundaries shift toward the small- J region and, most importantly, iii) the spin-gap region spreads across the boundary of , suggesting an exotic metallic phase with spin-gap, which is absent in the conventional model. The result indicates that the long-range dipolar interactions have a significant influence on the ground-state properties of the one-dimensional model. Its implication on the pseudogap phenomenon of the hole-doped cuprates is briefly discussed.

Topological phases in ultracold polar-molecule quantum magnets

Salvatore R. Manmana, Edwin Miles Stoudenmire, Kaden R. A. Hazzard +2 more

We show how to use polar molecules in an optical lattice to engineer quantum spin models with arbitrary spin $S\ensuremath{\ge}1/2$ and with interactions featuring a direction-dependent spin anisotropy. This is achieved by encoding the effective spin degrees of freedom in microwave-dressed rotational states of the molecules and by coupling the spins through dipolar interactions. We demonstrate how one of the experimentally most accessible anisotropies stabilizes symmetry protected topological phases in spin ladders. Using the numerically exact density matrix renormalization group method, we find that these interacting phases---previously studied only in the nearest-neighbor case---survive in the presence of long-range dipolar interactions. We also show how to use our approach to realize the bilinear-biquadratic spin-1 and the Kitaev honeycomb models. Experimental detection schemes and imperfections are discussed.

Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov pairing states of a polarized dipolar Fermi gas trapped in a one-dimensional optical lattice

Xingbo Wei, Chao Gao, Reza Asgari +2 more

We study the interplay between the long- and short-range interaction of a one-dimensional optical lattice system of two-component dipolar fermions by using the density matrix renormalization group method. The atomic density profile, pairing-pairing correlation function, and compressibility are calculated in the ground state, from which we identify the parameter region of the Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) pairing state, half-metal (HM) state, FFLO-HM state, and the normal polarized state, and thus the phase diagram in the coordinates of the long- and short-range interaction strength. The effect of the long-range dipolar interaction on the FFLO state is discussed in detail. We find that the long-range part of the dipole-dipole interaction does not sweep away the FFLO superconducting region that is driven by the short-range interaction in the Hubbard model, and thus the FFLO state survives in the wide parameter space of the long-range interaction, polarization, and filling.

Quantum spin models with long-range interactions and tunnelings: a quantum Monte Carlo study

Michał Maik, Philipp Hauke, Omjyoti Dutta +2 more

We use a quantum Monte Carlo method to investigate various classes of two-dimensional spin models with long-range interactions at low temperatures. In particular, we study a dipolar XXZ model with U (1) symmetry that appears as a hard-core boson limit of an extended Hubbard model describing polarized dipolar atoms or molecules in an optical lattice. Tunneling, in such a model, is short-range, whereas density–density couplings decay with distance following a cubic power law. We also investigate an XXZ model with long-range couplings of all three spin components—such a model describes a system of ultracold ions in a lattice of microtraps. We describe an approximate phase diagram for such systems at zero and at finite temperature, and compare their properties. In particular, we compare the extent of crystalline, superfluid and supersolid phases. Our predictions apply directly to current experiments with mesoscopic numbers of polar molecules and trapped ions.

Phase separation induced by density-spin interaction in one-dimensional extended t-J model

Bin-Bin Mao, Chen Cheng, Fuzhou Chen +1 more

t-J model is one of important theoretical models in the study of high temperature superconductivity. Recent cold molecule experiments indicate that t-J model can be simulated by ultracold polar molecules. In the simulated t-J model, besides long-range dipolar interaction, density-spin interaction has also been introduced. In the present we study the effect of density-spin interaction in the one-dimensional extended t-J model by using the density matrix renormalization group method. We choose three sets of representative parameters, which correspond to three different phases in the ground state phase diagram of t-J model, to calculate the charge and spin density distribution in real space and the structure factor of density-density and spin-spin correlation functions. The results indicate that the nature of the system will not change if the intensity of the density-spin interaction is small, however if the intensity is large enough, the system enters the phase separation, in which the character is quiet different form that of the phase separation in the traditional t-J model.
