Critical temperature and ground state fraction of low-dimensional bose-einstein condensation

Abstract

The relationship of the critical temperature versus the total number of particles in different dimensional spaces,as well as the effect of the first-excited-state energy of particles on the critical temperature of low-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensation,are discussed in this paper.It is shown that the critical temperature in low-dimensional space increases more quickly than that in high-dimensional space with density of particle number increasing,and the critical temperature of system has close relation to the first-excited-state energy.In addition,even under the condition of absent special external potential,such as harmonic potential and power-law potential,the Bose-Einstein condensation can be realized at several K0 for excitons gas trapped in GaAs quantum well.

Bose-Einstein condensation of a trapped gas in n dimensions

Zijun Yan

The critical temperature for Bose-Einstein condensation, ground-state fraction, and heat capacity of an ideal gas of Bose particles that are confined by an n-dimensional generic power-law potential trap are derived. The conditions for Bose-Einstein condensation and the discontinuous conditions of the heat capacity at critical temperature are obtained. All these quantities and conditions are found to vary markedly with the dimensionality of space, characteristics of particles, and shape of the external potential. The results obtained here are universal.

A Theoretical Investigation of Low-Dimensional Bose-Einstein Condensations

Ching‐Fuh Lin

Low-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensations (BEC) for g(e) (the density of states) = Cde(superscript d-1) with d ≤ 1, corresponding to a dimensionality of not larger than 2, are theoretically analyzed. When the energy quantization of the first excited state is taken into account, the boson number in the excited states is finite even for d ≤ 1 with the density of states remaining proportional toe(superscript d-1). The condensation temperature increases with the particle number faster for d ≤ 1 than for d ＞ 1. The condensation depends highly on the quantized energye1 of the first excited state. Whene1 just deviates slightly from zero, the condensation temperature quickly increases withe1. Theoretical estimation shows that a low-dimensional BEC can occur at a temperature above 1 K for excitons in semiconductor quantum wells even without the harmonic-oscillator potential.

Bose-Einstein Condensation of an Ideal Bose Gas Trapped in the Low Dimensional Space

Liu Jing-yi

By using the local density approximation, Bose-Einstein condensation of Bose gas in the low dimensional space is investigated. The results show that when a proper external potential is taken, BEC may occur in the low dimensional space. The critical temperature Tc, the ground state fraction N0/N and the behaviour (jump or not) of the heat capacity C depend on the shape of the potential.

Bose-Einstein condensation of an ideal Bose gas trapped in any dimension

The properties of a trapped ideal Bose gas in n -dimensional space are studied. General analytic expressions of the critical temperature of Bose-Einstein condensation, the jump of heat capacity at and the fraction of condensation at temperatures below have been derived. How these physical quantities depend on the external potential, particle characteristics and space dimensionality are discussed. We find that when a proper external potential is taken, Bose-Einstein condensation may occur in any dimensional space.

Transition Temperature in One-Dimensional Bose–Einstein Condensation

Shoichi Sakamoto, Hideki Matsumoto

The phase transition of the one-dimensional Bose gas, interacting weakly with a repulsive potential and trapped in an external parabolic potential, is studied in a mean field approximation. The Bose–Einstein condensed (BEC) state is identified by the non-vanishing thermal average of a bose field. Free energies between the BEC state and normal state are compared. A crossing of the free energies occurring at low temperature suggests the first order phase transition in an interacting one-dimensional bose system. From fitting of numerical results, the relation among the transition temperature T c , the total number of bosons N and the interaction V is also provided as a simple power law, T c ∝( N 2 V ) 2/3 .

Critical Temperature and Ground State Fraction of a Weakly Interacting Bose Gas Trapped in a Harmonic Potential

Lixuan Chen

The critical temperature for the Bose-Einstein Condensation of an imperfect Bose gas trapped in a harmonic potential is calculated by using the local density approximation (LDA). The effects of weak interaction on the critical temperature and ground-state fraction of particles are discussed. The investigation will be helpful for the further understanding of the properties of BEC, which is called as a new kind of state of matter.
