Solitary Excitations of Dipolar Bosons in Optical Lattice under Magnetic Fields

Wang Shi-En, Yang Dao-Sheng

Abstract

We obtain the multisolitary solutions of the extended Bose–Hubbard model which describes dipolar Bose–Einstein condensates in optical lattices under time-dependent magnetic fields, and indicate that the nonlinearity is due to both on-site short-range interactions and also (long-range) dipole-dipole interactions which can act between neighboring sites. The discrete breathers as nonlinear excitations are always oscillatory in time and can also be spatially localized, while the oscillatory frequencies are determined by an external field. We show that these excitations will be observable and discuss how the parameters can be tuned in future experiments.

Nonlinear dynamics of a dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate in an optical lattice

Zhengwei Xie, Ze-Xian Cao, Efim I Kats +1 more

The dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates in optical lattices with the long-range dipole-dipole interactions, the short-range on-site interactions, and hopping terms is reduced to the generalized discrete nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. We present the different types of solitary excitations which appear in different parameter regions. We anticipate that these excitations will be observable and discuss how the model parameters can be tuned in experiments.

Magnetic solitons of spinor Bose-Einstein condensates in an optical lattice

Zhengwei Xie, Weiping Zhang, S. T. Chui +1 more

Magnetic solitons in spinor Bose-Einstein condensates confined in a one-dimensional optical lattice are studied by the Holstein-Primakoff transformation method. It is shown that due to the long-range light-induced and static magnetic dipole-dipole interactions, there exist different types of magnetic solitary excitations in different parameter regions. Compared to conventional solid-state materials, the parameters of this type of magnetic solitons in an optical lattice can be easily tuned by the above dipole-dipole interactions, which are highly controllable in experiments.

Dipolar Matter-Wave Soliton in One-Dimensional Optical Lattice with Tunable Local and Nonlocal Nonlinearities

Zhihuan Luo, Yongyao Li, Wei Pang +1 more

We study dipolar Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) solitons in a one-dimensional optical lattice with the combined effect of local and nonlocal nonlinearities. The local nonlinearity is imposed by a magnetic or optical field via the Feshbach (FB) resonance. In contrast, the nonlocal nonlinearity is created by the long-range dipole–dipole interaction among the condensates. The orientations of the dipoles are directed by a rotatable uniform external field, which gives rise to a controllable nonlocal nonlinearity resulting from the angle θ between the direction of the dipole and the elongation of the lattice. If the lattice is sufficiently deep, this model can be described by the Gross–Pitaevskii equation (GPE) with tunable local and nonlocal nonlinear strengths (\(g\) and θ respectively). The formation, motion, and collision of the solitons in this system are studied by numerical simulations. The combined effect of the local and nonlocal nonlinearities gives a controllable scheme for all these characteristics via the relation between \(g\) and θ.

Magnetic Solitons in Optical Lattice

Xing-Dong Zhao

In this chapter, we discuss the magnetic solitons achieved in atomic spinor Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) confined within optical lattice. Spinor BECs at each lattice site behave like spin magnets and can interact with each other through the static magnetic dipole-dipole interaction (MDDI), due to which the magnetic soliton may exist in blue-detuned optical lattice. By imposing an external laser field into the lattice or loading atoms in a red-detuned optical lattice, the light-induced dipole-dipole interaction (LDDI) can produce new magnetic solitons. The long-range couplings induced by the MDDI and ODDI play a dominant role in the spin dynamics in an optical lattice. Compared with spin chain in solid material, the nearest-neighbor approximation, next-nearest-neighbor approximation, and long-range case are discussed, respectively.

Solitons mobility in a dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate in an optical lattice

Bakhram Umarov, Abdelaziz Benzeghir

The present work is devoted to the theoretical investigation of the dynamics of Bose –Einstein condensates (BEC) in optical lattice with the long range magnetic dipole-dipole interaction between atoms. The system is described by a nonlocal nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLSE). We consider the case when the lattice depth is sufficiently large (tight binding approximation). In this case nonlocal NLSE can be reduced to discrete NLSE equation. We show that discrete NLSE equation for some range of parameters can be reduced further to integrable Ablowitz-Ladik equation which supports moving solitons. Taking the one-soliton solution of Ablowitz-Ladik equation as an initial condition we have performed detailed numerical study of a soliton dynamics in both nonlocal NLSE and discrete NLSE. The conditions of existence and stability of moving solitons in dipolar BEC in an optical lattice are numerically revealed. Also the applicability limits for the tight binding approximation for the experimentally achievable range of parameters are investigated.
