Phase diagram of disordered two-dimensional extended Bose-Hubbard model

Ji-Ming Gao, Rong-An Tang, Ju-Kui Xue

By using the inhomogeneous mean-field theory, the phase diagram of the two-dimensional soft-core extended Bose-Hubbard model with both on-site and nearest-neighbor interactions in the presence of spatial disorder is determined. Rich phases, including Mott-insulator, checkerboard solid, supersolid, superfluid and disordered solid are obtained. Interestingly, due to the presence of disorder, a new disordered solid phase is found between the incompressible lobes, and it is demonstrated that the supersolid phase can survive in two-dimensional soft-core bosons. Furthermore, the system undergoes the phase transition from a disordered solid into a solid order or supersolid landscape when the disorder strength is increased. For weak nearest-neighbor repulsion, the increase of the disorder strength induces both checkerboard solid and supersolid phases shrinking to smaller hopping regions. However, for strong nearest-neighbor repulsion, the disorder stabilizes the supersolid phase and makes it occupying a remarkably broad region in the phase diagram. The analytical expressions for the phase boundaries between the incompressible and compressible phases are also obtained, which are in qualitative agreement with our numerical results.

Quasiperiodic Bose-Hubbard model and localization in one-dimensional cold atomic gases

Guillaume Roux, Thomas Barthel, Ian P. McCulloch +3 more

We compute the phase diagram of the one-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model with a quasiperiodic potential by means of the density-matrix renormalization group technique. This model describes the physics of cold atoms loaded in an optical lattice in the presence of a superlattice potential whose wavelength is incommensurate with the main lattice wavelength. After discussing the conditions under which the model can be realized experimentally, the study of the density vs the chemical potential curves for a nontrapped system unveils the existence of gapped phases at incommensurate densities interpreted as incommensurate charge-density-wave phases. Furthermore, a localization transition is known to occur above a critical value of the potential depth ${V}_{2}$ in the case of free and hard-core bosons. We extend these results to soft-core bosons for which the phase diagrams at fixed densities display new features compared with the phase diagrams known for random box distribution disorder. In particular, a direct transition from the superfluid phase to the Mott-insulating phase is found at finite ${V}_{2}$. Evidence for reentrances of the superfluid phase upon increasing interactions is presented. We finally comment on different ways to probe the emergent quantum phases and most importantly, the existence of a critical value for the localization transition. The latter feature can be investigated by looking at the expansion of the cloud after releasing the trap.

Supersolid phase of the extended Bose-Hubbard model with an artificial gauge field

Kuldeep Suthar, Hrushikesh Sable, Rukmani Bai +3 more

We examine the zero- and finite-temperature phase diagrams of soft-core bosons of the extended Bose-Hubbard model on a square optical lattice. To study various quantum phases and their transitions we employ single-site and cluster Gutzwiller mean-field theory. We have observed that the Mott insulator phase vanishes above a critical value of nearest-neighbor interaction and the supersolid phase occupies a larger region in the phase diagram. We show that the presence of an artificial gauge field enlarges the domain of the supersolid phase. The finite temperature destroys the crystalline structure of the supersolid phase and thereby favors the normal fluid--to--superfluid phase transition. The presence of an envelope harmonic potential demonstrates the coexistence of different phases, and at $z{k}_{B}T\ensuremath{\geqslant}V$, thermal energy comparable to or higher than the long-range interaction energy, the supersolidity of the system is destroyed.
