A MODEL OF BOSE–EINSTEIN CONDENSATION WITH ITINERANT AND LOCALIZED STATES

Abstract

We propose a model that includes itinerant and localized states to study Bose–Einstein condensation of ultracold atoms in optical lattices (Bose–Anderson model). It is found that the original itinerant and localized states intermix to give rise to a new energy band structure with two quasiparticle energy bands. We have computed the critical temperature Tc of the Bose–Einstein condensation of the quasiparticles in the Bose–Anderson model using our newly developed numerical algorithm and found that Tc increases as na3 (the number density times the lattice constant cubed) increases according to the power law Tc≈18.93(na3)0.59 nK for na3<0.125 and according to the linear relation Tc≈8.75+10.53na3 nK for 1.25<na3<12.5 for the given model parameters. With the self-consistent equations for the condensation fractions obtained within the Bogoliubov mean-field approximation, the effects of the on-site repulsion U on the quasiparticle condensation are investigated. We have found that, for values up to several times the zeroth-order critical temperature, U enhances the zeroth-order condensation fraction at intermediate temperatures and effectively raises the critical temperature, while it slightly suppresses the zeroth-order condensation fraction at very low temperatures.

Bose–Einstein condensation in one-dimensional optical lattices: Bogoliubov’s approximation and beyond

Mohamed K. Al-Sugheir, Mufeed A. Awawdeh, H. B. Ghassib +1 more

Bose–Einstein condensation in a finite one-dimensional atomic Bose gas trapped in an optical lattice is studied within Bogoliubov’s approximation and then beyond this approximation, within the static fluctuation approximation. A Bose–Hubbard model is used to construct the Hamiltonian of the system. The effect of the potential strength on the condensate fraction is explored at different temperatures; so is the effect of temperature on this fraction at different potential strengths. The role of the number of lattice points (the size effect) at constant number density (the filling factor) is examined; so is the effect of the number density on the condensate fraction. The results obtained are compared to other published results wherever possible.

Self-localization of Bose–Einstein condensates in optical lattices

Johannes Kruse, Ragnar Fleischmann

Abstract Mean field and beyond mean field model calculations of Bose–Einstein condensates trapped in optical lattices have shown that initially homogeneous condensates can evolve into self-trapped, strongly localized states in the presence of weak boundary dissipation, a phenomenon called self-localization . A dynamical phase transition from extended to localized states can be observed when the effective nonlinearity exceeds a critical threshold Λ eff c . We investigate this phase transition to self-localization in the mean field approximation of the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation. We quantitatively characterize the properties of the discrete breathers , i.e. the nonlinear localized solutions, at the phase transition. This leads us to propose and numerically verify an analytical lower bound Λ eff L for the critical nonlinearity based on the idea of self-induced Anderson localization.

Bose-Einstein-condensed systems of hard spheres at high density

Ha Kim, Cheng-Song Kim, Chang-Lyol Huang +2 more

The properties of Bose-Einstein-condensed systems of hard spheres at high density are studied by taking into account higher-order corrections beyond the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov approximation. Based on a diagrammatic technique of the perturbation expansion starting from the Bogoliubov approximation, we show that the effective interactions separate into two distinct parts: the screened and condensate-mediated interactions. The latter is described by the exchange of virtual quasiparticles between noncondensate bosons via the Bose-Einstein condensate and is attractive for small energy transfer. We calculate the condensation temperature, excitation spectrum, and condensate density in the whole region of the gas parameter. It is shown that the condensate temperature decreases compared to that of an ideal Bose gas due to hard-sphere interactions. We find that the condensate-mediated attraction between noncondensate bosons leads to an enhancement of the anomalous self-energy and, as a consequence, to the emergence of a roton minimum in the excitation spectrum and to the strong suppression of the condensate fraction in the region of high density.

Bose-Einstein condensation in diamond hierarchical lattices

M. L. Lyra, F. A. B. F. de Moura, I. N. de Oliveira +1 more

The Bose-Einstein condensation of noninteracting particles restricted to move on the sites of hierarchical diamond lattices is investigated. Using a tight-binding single-particle Hamiltonian with properly rescaled hopping amplitudes, we are able to employ an orthogonal basis transformation to exactly map it on a set of decoupled linear chains with sizes and degeneracies written in terms of the network branching parameter q and generation number n. The integrated density of states is shown to have a fractal structure of gaps and degeneracies with a power-law decay at the band bottom. The spectral dimension d(s) coincides with the network topological dimension d(f) = ln(2q)/ln(2). We perform a finite-size scaling analysis of the fraction of condensed particles and specific heat to characterize the critical behavior of the BEC transition that occurs for q > 2 (d(s) > 2). The critical exponents are shown to follow those for lattices with a pure power-law spectral density, with non-mean-field values for q < 8 (d(s) < 4). The transition temperature is shown to grow monotonically with the branching parameter, obeying the relation 1/T(c) = a + b/(q - 2).

Bose-Einstein condensation in tight-binding bands

R. Ramakumar, A. N. Das

We present a theoretical study of the condensation of bosons in tight-binding bands corresponding to simple cubic, body-centered cubic, and face-centered cubic lattices. We have analyzed noninteracting bosons, weakly interacting bosons using the Bogoliubov method, and strongly interacting bosons through a renormalized Hamiltonian approach valid for the number of bosons per site less than or equal to unity. In all the cases studied, we find that bosons in a body-centered cubic lattice have the highest Bose condensation temperature. The growth of the condensate fraction of noninteracting bosons is found to be very close to that of free bosons. The interaction partially depletes the condensate at zero temperature and close to it, while enhancing it beyond this range below the Bose-Einstein condensation temperature. Strong interaction enhances the boson effective mass as the band-filling is increased and eventually localizes the bosons to form a Bose-Mott-Hubbard insulator for integer filling.

Theory of adiabatic variation of critical temperature of the Bose-Einstein condensation of an ideal gas in optical lattice

G. A. Muradyan, A. Zh. Muradyan

We calculate the critical temperature of the Bose-Einstein condensation of an ideal Bosegas in the presence of an external periodic potential in one, two, or three directions. A number of assumed approximations enables us to show that the only parameter determining the critical temperature of condensation is the width of the lower energy band with the direct proportionality to the one-third power of this width for each direction of periodicity of the external potential. This also proves the result, obtained earlier by means of numerical calculation, that deepening of the periodic potential (which is known to lead to narrowing of energy bands) leads to lowering of the critical temperature. The fundamental role of quantum tunneling in establishing this regularity is emphasized.
