Separation of quadrupole, spin, and charge across the magnetic phases of a one-dimensional interacting spin-1 gas

Abstract

We study the low-energy collective properties of a one-dimensional spin-1 Bose gas using bosonization. After giving an overview of the technique, emphasizing the physical aspects, we apply it to the $S=1$ Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian and find a separation of the quadrupole-spin-charge sectors, confirmed by time--matrix-product states (time-MPS) numerical simulations. Additionally, through the single-particle spectrum, we show the existence of the superfluid--Mott-insulator transition and the point at which the physics are described by a Heisenberg-like Hamiltonian. The magnetic phase diagrams are found for both the superfluid and insulating regimes; the latter is determined by decomposing the complete Heisenberg bilinear-biquadratic Hamiltonian, which describes the Mott insulator, into simpler, effective Hamiltonians. This allows us to keep our methods flexible and transferable to other interesting interacting condensed matter systems.

Magnetic phase transition in coherently coupled Bose gases in optical lattices

Luca Barbiero, Marta Abad, Alessio Recati

We describe the ground state of a gas of bosonic atoms with two coherently coupled internal levels in a deep optical lattice in a one-dimensional geometry. In the single-band approximation this system is described by a Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian. The system has a superfluid and a Mott insulating phase that can be either paramagnetic or ferromagnetic. We characterize the quantum phase transitions at unit filling by means of a density-matrix renormalization-group technique and compare the results with a mean-field approach and an effective spin Hamiltonian. The presence of the ferromagnetic Ising-like transition modifies the Mott lobes. In the Mott insulating region the system maps to the ferromagnetic spin-1/2 $XXZ$ model in a transverse field and the numerical results compare very well with the analytical results obtained from the spin model. In the superfluid regime quantum fluctuations strongly modify the phase transition with respect to the well-established mean-field three-dimensional classical bifurcation.

Spin-charge separation in a Binary Bose Gases in Optical Lattices

Laurent de Forges de Parny, V. G. Rousseau

We derive the ground-state phase diagram of antiferromagnetic spin-1 bosons trapped in a square optical lattice in the limit of large negative quadratic Zeeman interaction, i.e., a limit where only two spin components $\sigma=\uparrow, \downarrow$ are involved. The system thus reduces to an interacting binary Bose gas. Our quantum Monte Carlo simulations reveal a phase transition from a $x-y$ ferromagnetic-order to a spin insulator without symmetry breaking, inside the Mott insulating phase with two particles per site. This 3D-XY transition is characterized by the establishment of a finite local magnetic moment along the $z$-axis and by counterflow superfluidity inside the Mott phase. When increasing the spin-spin interaction amplitude $U_2$, this transition merges with the Mott-superfluid transition and becomes first-order. We derive the phase diagram of the spin-charge separation with respect to $U_2$ parameter.

Phase Diagram of Spin-1 Bosons on One-Dimensional Lattices

Matteo Rizzi, Davide Rossini, Gabriele De Chiara +2 more

Spinor Bose condensates loaded in optical lattices have a rich phase diagram characterized by different magnetic order. Here we apply the density matrix renormalization group to accurately determine the phase diagram for spin-1 bosons loaded on a one-dimensional lattice. The Mott lobes present an even or odd asymmetry associated to the boson filling. We show that for odd fillings the insulating phase is always in a dimerized state. The results obtained in this work are also relevant for the determination of the ground state phase diagram of the S = 1 Heisenberg model with biquadratic interaction.

Magnetic phases and phase diagram of spin-1 condensate with quadrupole degrees of freedom

M S Bulakhov, A S Peletminskii, S V Peletminskii +1 more

Abstract We obtain and justify a many-body Hamiltonian of pairwise interacting spin-1 atoms, which includes eight generators of the SU(3) group associated with spin and quadrupole degrees of freedom. It is shown that this Hamiltonian is valid for non-local interaction potential, whereas for local interaction specified by s -wave scattering length, the Hamiltonian should be bilinear in spin operators only (of the Heisenberg type). We apply the obtained Hamiltonian to study the ground-state properties and single-particle excitations of a weakly interacting gas of spin-1 atoms with Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) taking into account the quadrupole degrees of freedom. It is shown that the system under consideration can be in ferromagnetic, quadrupole, and paramagnetic phases. The corresponding phase diagram is constructed and discussed. The main characteristics such as the density of the grand thermodynamic potential, condensate density, and single-particle excitation spectra modified by quadrupole degrees of freedom are determined in different phases.

Bosonic Mott Insulator with Meissner Currents

Alexandru Petrescu, Karyn Le Hur

We introduce a generic bosonic model exemplifying that (spin) Meissner currents can persist in insulating phases of matter. We consider two species of interacting bosons on a lattice. Our model exhibits separation of charge (total density) and spin (relative density): the charge sector is gapped in a bosonic Mott insulator phase with total density one, while the spin sector remains superfluid due to interspecies conversion. Coupling the spin sector to the gauge fields yields a spin Meissner effect reflecting the long-range spin superfluid coherence. We investigate the resulting phase diagram and describe other possible spin phases of matter in the Mott regime possessing chiral currents as well as a spin-density wave phase. The model presented here is realizable in Josephson junction arrays and in cold atom experiments.

Theoretical study on phases and phase transitions of ferromagnetic spin-1 bosons in optical lattices

弘博 曽

Since the experimental realization of Bose-Einstein condensation in 1995, the field of ultracold atoms has expanded rapidly, and has become an important arena for exploring diverse quantum many-body physics, as highlighted by the experimental observation of quantum phase transitions in the system of bosons in a periodic potential, which is described by the Bose-Hubbard model.Recently, ultracold atoms with spin degrees of freedom are actively studied because the coupling between the internal spin degrees of freedom and the spatial degrees of freedom can give rise to novel and interesting physics.A minimal model for studying such physics is the spin-1 Bose-Hubbard model, which describes spin-1 bosons in a periodic potential.The model has a spin-dependent interaction, which can be ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic, and it is known that although the ferromagnetic model resembles the spinless counterpart, the antiferromagnetic model exhibits totally different features, which make the model much more intensively studied compared with the ferromagnetic one.However, the presence of an external magnetic field can change the situation, because the positive quadratic Zeeman energy competes with the ferromagnetic interaction, which can give rise to rich phases.In this thesis, we explore the ground-state and nonzero-temperature phase diagrams of the spin-1 Bose-Hubbard model under an external magnetic field.To analyze the model, we use an approximation method called the decoupling approximation, or equivalently, the Gutzwiller variational ansatz.It is shown that, in addition to the Mott insulator phase, the model possesses two superfluid phases.Moreover, for large values of a spin-dependent interaction, the phase transitions between the two superfluid phases can be discontinuous.Such discontinuous phase transitions are shown to survive at nonzero but sufficiently low temperature.The discontinuous phase transitions are in clear contrast to the mean-field theory of weakly interacting spin-1 bosons without a lattice, which predicts that the corresponding phase transition is continuous, signifying the importance of the effect of strong interactions on the interplay between the spatial and spinor degrees of freedom. 4.1.2The grand Hamiltonian . . . . . . . . .
