Hall response of interacting bosonic atoms in strong gauge fields: From condensed to fractional-quantum-Hall states

H. Pino, Emilio Alba, J. Taron +2 more

Interacting bosonic atoms under strong gauge fields undergo a series of phase transitions that take the cloud from a simple Bose-Einstein condensate all the way to a family of fractional-quantum-Hall-type states [M. Popp, B. Paredes, and J. I. Cirac, Phys. Rev. A 70, 053612 (2004)]. In this work we demonstrate that the Hall response of the atoms can be used to locate the phase transitions and characterize the ground state of the many-body state. Moreover, the same response function reveals within some regions of the parameter space, the structure of the spectrum and the allowed transitions to excited states. We verify numerically these ideas using exact diagonalization for a small number of atoms, and provide an experimental protocol to implement the gauge fields and probe the linear response using a periodically driven optical lattice. Finally, we discuss our theoretical results in relation to recent experiments with condensates in artificial magnetic fields [L. J. LeBlanc, K. Jimenez-Garcia, R. A. Williams, M. C. Beeler, A. R. Perry, W. D. Phillips, and I. B. Spielman, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 109, 10811 (2012)] and we analyze the role played by vortex states in the Hall response.

Time-of-flight patterns of ultracold bosons in optical lattices in various Abelian artificial magnetic field gauges

T. P. Polak, T. A. Zaleski

We calculate the time-of-flight patterns of strongly interacting bosons confined in a two-dimensional square lattice in the presence of an artificial magnetic field, using a quantum rotor model that is inherently combined with the Bogoliubov approach. We consider various geometries of the magnetic flux, which are expected to be realizable, or have already been implemented in experimental settings. The flexibility of the method allowed us to study cases where the artificial magnetic field is uniform or staggered or forms a checkerboard configuration. The effects of additional temporal modulation of the optical potential that results from application of Raman lasers driving particle transitions between lattice sites are also included. The time-of-flight patterns presented may serve as a verification of the chosen gauge in experiments, but also provide important hints on unconventional, nonzero-momentum condensates, or the possibility of observing graphenelike physics resulting from the occurrence of Dirac cones in artificial magnetic fields in systems of ultracold bosons in optical lattices. Also, we elucidate the differences between the effects of magnetic fields in solids and of artificial magnetic fields in optical lattices, which can be controlled on a much higher level, leading to effects not possible in condensed matter physics.
