Negative-quench-induced excitation dynamics for ultracold bosons in one-dimensional lattices

S. I. Mistakidis, L. Cao, Peter Schmelcher

The nonequilibrium dynamics following a quench of strongly repulsive bosonic ensembles in one-dimensional finite lattices is investigated by employing interaction quenches and/or a ramp of the lattice potential. Both sudden and time-dependent quenches are analyzed in detail. For the case of interaction quenches we address the transition from the strong repulsive to the weakly interacting regime, suppressing in this manner the heating of the system. The excitation modes such as the cradle process and the local breathing mode are examined via local density observables. In particular, the cradle mode is inherently related to the initial delocalization and, following a negative interaction quench, can be excited only for incommensurate setups with filling larger than unity. Alternatively, a negative quench of the lattice depth which favors the spatial delocalization is used to access the cradle mode for setups with filling smaller than unity. Our results shed light on possible schemes to control the cradle and the breathing modes. Finally, employing the notion of fidelity we study the dynamical response of the system after a diabatic or adiabatic parameter modulation for short and long evolution times. The evolution of the system is obtained numerically using the ab initio multilayer multiconfiguration time-dependent Hartree method for bosons, which permits us to follow nonequilibrium dynamics including the corresponding investigation of higher-band effects.

Negative Interaction Quench Dynamics of Density-Ordered Dipolar Bosons in a One-Dimensional Optical Lattice

Rhombik Roy, N. D. Chavda, Barnali Chakrabarti +1 more

We explore the nonequilibrium dynamics of a density-ordered dipolar Bose gas in a finite one-dimensional optical lattice following a negative interaction quench, using the numerically exact multiconfigurational time-dependent Hartree method for bosons. The interaction sign reversal, effectively driving a crossover from long-range to short-range interactions, generates rich intra- and interwell tunneling dynamics spanning superfluid, Mott-insulating, and fragmented regimes. A striking finding is the robustness of the underlying crystal-state correlations against the quench, despite the strong dynamical response. We identify emergent excitation modes, including local breathing and dipole-like oscillations, via real- and momentum-space observables, and quantify tunneling through site-resolved position variance. One- and two-body Glauber correlation functions further uncover a direct connection between tunneling and correlation dynamics. Moreover, we show that combining interaction quenches with lattice-depth ramping enables controllable dynamical engineering, establishing dipolar lattice systems as a promising platform for nonequilibrium quantum simulation.

Mode coupling of interaction quenched ultracold few-boson ensembles in periodically driven lattices

S. I. Mistakidis, Peter Schmelcher

The out-of-equilibrium dynamics of interaction quenched finite ultracold bosonic ensembles in periodically driven one-dimensional optical lattices is investigated. It is shown that periodic driving enforces the bosons in the outer wells of the finite lattice to exhibit out-of-phase dipolelike modes, while in the central well the atomic cloud experiences a local breathing mode. The dynamical behavior is investigated with varying driving frequencies, revealing resonantlike behavior of the intrawell dynamics. An interaction quench in the periodically driven lattice gives rise to admixtures of different excitations in the outer wells, enhanced breathing in the center, and amplification of the tunneling dynamics. We then observe multiple resonances between the inter- and the intrawell dynamics at different quench amplitudes, with the position of the resonances being tunable via the driving frequency. Our results pave the way for future investigations of the use of combined driving protocols in order to excite different inter- and intrawell modes and to subsequently control them.
