Emergent flat bands and nonlinear phenomena of Bose−Einstein condensates in two-dimensional trilayer moiré optical lattices

Xiuye Liu, Jianhua Zeng

Moiré superlattices, classified as a supercell periodic structure configured from a periodic lattice overlaps with its twisted counterpart, have been demonstrated to exhibit many emergent linear and nonlinear phenomena like moiré induced flat bands, unconventional superconductivity, unique linear classical wave localization and nonlinear localized modes. Recent studies are, however, mainly focused on twisted bilayer structures, the static and nonequilibrium physics of trilayer moiré superlattices have remained largely unknown. We here consider trilayer moiré optical lattices by which Bose−Einstein condensates are trapped, and demonstrate theoretically the emergent flat bands and nonlinear phenomena — localized gap modes in form of gap solitons and vortices with a topological charge s=1. We give a unified picture for constructing optimal (largest) photonic forbidden gaps in such trilayer moiré superlattices and reveal nonlinear localization mechanism therein. Computational studies demonstrated the robustness of these localized modes, enabling insightful inspections of moiré physics and exploring ongoing moiré photonics applications in twisted trilayer superlattices in optics and ultracold atoms.

Observation of dense collisional soliton complexes in a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate

Sean M. Mossman, G. C. Katsimiga, S. I. Mistakidis +5 more

Abstract Solitons are nonlinear solitary waves which maintain their shape over time and through collisions, occurring in a variety of nonlinear media from plasmas to optics. We present an experimental and theoretical study of hydrodynamic phenomena in a two-component atomic Bose-Einstein condensate where a soliton array emerges from the imprinting of a periodic spin pattern by a microwave pulse-based winding technique. We observe the ensuing dynamics which include shape deformations, the emergence of dark-antidark solitons, apparent spatial frequency tripling, and decay and revival of contrast related to soliton collisions. For the densest arrays, we obtain soliton complexes where solitons undergo continued collisions for long evolution times providing an avenue towards the investigation of soliton gases in atomic condensates.

Nonlinearity-induced dynamical self-organized twisted-bilayer lattices in Bose-Einstein condensates

Rui Tian, Zhang, Yue, Tianhao Wu +4 more

Creating crystal bilayers twisted with respect to each other would lead to large periodic supercell structures, which can support a wide range of novel electron correlated phenomena, where the full understanding is still under debate. Here, we propose a new scheme to realize a nonlinearity-induced dynamical self-organized twisted-bilayer lattice in an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). The key idea here is to utilize the nonlinear effect from the intrinsic atomic interactions to couple different layers and induce a dynamical self-organized supercell structure, dramatically distinct from the conventional wisdom to achieve the static twisted-bilayer lattices. To illustrate that, we study the dynamics of a two-component BEC and show that the nonlinear interaction effect naturally emerged in the Gross-Pitaevskii equation of interacting bosonic ultracold atoms can dynamically induce both periodic (commensurable) and aperiodic (incommensurable) moiré structures. One of the interesting moiré phenomena, i.e., the flat-band physics, is shown through investigating the dynamics of the wave packet of BEC. Our proposal can be implemented using available state-of-the-art experimental techniques and reveal a profound connection between the nonlinearity and twistronics in cold atom quantum simulators.
