Effective p-wave Fermi-Fermi Interaction Induced by Bosonic Superfluids

Abstract

We study the two-dimensional Bose-Fermi mixture on square lattice at finite temperature by using the determinant quantum Monte Carlo method within the weakly interacting regime. Here we consider the attractive Bose-Hubbard model and free spinless fermions. In the absence of boson-fermion interactions, we obtain the boundary of the collapsed state of the attractive bosons. In the presence of boson-fermion interactions, an effective p-wave interaction between fermions will be induced as far as the bosons are in a superfluid state. Moreover, we find the emergence of the composite fermion pairs at low temperatures.

High-Temperature Atomic Superfluidity in Lattice Bose-Fermi Mixtures

Fabrizio Illuminati, Alexander P. Albus

We consider atomic Bose-Fermi mixtures in optical lattices and study the superfluidity of fermionic atoms due to s-wave pairing induced by boson-fermion interactions. We prove that the induced fermion-fermion coupling is always attractive if the boson-boson on-site interaction is repulsive, and predict the existence of an enhanced BEC-BCS crossover as the strength of the lattice potential is varied. We show that for direct on-site fermion-fermion repulsion, the induced attraction can give rise to superfluidity via s-wave pairing at striking variance with the case of pure systems of fermionic atoms with direct repulsive interactions.

Quantum Monte Carlo simulation of three-dimensional Bose-Fermi mixtures

Arata Yamamoto, Tetsuo Hatsuda

Exploratory simulations of Bose-Fermi mixtures on the three-dimensional optical lattice at finite temperature are performed by adopting the lattice quantum chromodynamics technique. We analyze the bosonic superfluid transition and its dependence on the strength of the boson-fermion coupling. The particle densities and the pair occupancies are also studied to understand the effect of the boson-fermion coupling to the microscopic properties of the system. The effect of the induced fermion-fermion interaction by the boson density fluctuation is clearly seen.

Fermion-induced decoherence of bosons in optical lattices

Akiko Masaki, 弘之 森

Bose-Fermi mixtures with attractive Bose-Fermi interactions in one-dimensional optical lattices are studied by using Quantum Monte Carlo simulations of an extended Bose-Fermi Hubbard model. We first derived the extended Hubbard model with the hopping terms of each species modified to include interaction effects. Bosonic Mott transition induced by introducing fermions into bosons is demonstrated by the simulations.

p -wave superfluid and phase separation in atomic Bose-Fermi mixtures

Kazunori Suzuki, Takahiko Miyakawa, T. Suzuki

We consider a system of repulsively interacting Bose-Fermi mixtures of spin-polarized uniform atomic gases at zero temperature. We examine possible realization of $p$-wave superfluidity of fermions due to an effective attractive interaction via density fluctuations of Bose-Einstein condensate within mean-field approximation. We find the ground state of the system by direct energy comparison of the $p$-wave superfluid state in a single uniform mixed phase and normal Fermi gas state in a phase-separated phase, and suggest an occurrence of the $p$-wave superfluidity for a strong boson-fermion interaction regime. We study some signatures of the $p$-wave superfluid, such as anisotropic energy gap and quasiparticle energy in the axial state, that have not been observed in spin-unpolarized superfluid of atomic fermions. We also show that a Cooper pair is a tightly bound state, such as a diatomic molecule in the strong boson-fermion coupling regime, and suggest an observable indication of the $p$-wave superfluid in the real experiment.

Mean-field phase diagram of the Bose-Fermi Hubbard model

Marin Bukov, Lode Pollet

We analyze the ground-state properties of mixtures consisting of scalar bosons and spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ fermions using a mean-field treatment of the local boson-fermion interaction on a simple cubic lattice. In the deep superfluid limit of the boson sector and the BCS regime of the fermion sector, we derive BCS-type equations to determine the phase diagram of the system. We find a competition between a charge density wave and a superconducting phase. In the opposite limit, we study the Mott-insulator-to-superfluid transition of the boson sector in the presence of a staggered density-induced alternating potential provided by the fermions, and determine the mean-field transition line. In the two-superfluids phase of the mixture, we restrict to nearest-neighbor-induced interactions between the fermions and consider the extended Hubbard model. We perform a mean-field analysis of the critical temperature for the formation of boson-assisted $s$-, extended ${s}^{\ensuremath{-}}$-, $d$-, and $p$-wave pairs at fermionic half-filling. We compare our results with a recent dynamical mean-field study [P. Anders et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 206401 (2012)].

Mott Transition of Bose–Fermi Mixtures in Optical Lattices Induced by Attractive Interactions

Akiko Masaki, 弘之 森

We numerically studied Bose–Fermi mixtures in one-dimensional optical lattices using a modified Bose–Fermi–Hubbard model. We derived the modified Bose–Fermi–Hubbard model in a tight-binding approximation, retaining the terms which were usually ignored. Quantum Monte Carlo simulations were then performed on the model to demonstrate a bosonic Mott transition of the Bose–Fermi mixtures. This gives another scenario of the fermion-induced decoherence of bosons observed in some experiments.
